christmas songs but weird chords

Can you hear that?
[D] Am I going crazy?
Is that the sound [Bb]
of a Christmas [Ab] song?
We [E] stand in annual tradition.
We stand in annual tradition.
What's up pals?
Every year for like [Ab] four years around Christmas time, usually Christmas Eve because I get
it done last minute, I do some alternative Christmas song covers and this year is no exception.
Oh boy, have we got a load for you.
There's only four this year though.
I got stuck.
We shall begin with a song that isn't in minor, in the minor key, but it is in a very strange
time signature.
I thought I'd go for 7-4?
I don't entirely [Bb] know.
Also, I'm [E] quite unsure
as I'm singing this.
I [N] pretend I'm not, but I definitely am.
But enjoy!
You know what?
I wish you a Merry Christmas.
They wish you a Merry Christmas.
We wish you a Merry Christmas.
[Db] [Bbm]
[B] [Dbm]
[Abm] [Bm]
To you and your [E] kin, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Wow, that was [D] confusing.
Sick, sick, sick.
What have we got next?
Huh.
It's very apt
that this one's in a minor key because [Abm] I think I saw on the news the other day that because
of global warming, England probably won't get any more snow.
So [D]
I'll only ever be dreaming
of a white Christmas.
[Ab] Cool.
That changes.
[N] I'm dreaming of a white Christmas that'll never come again.
Okay.
[Ebm]
I'm dreaming [B] of a white Christmas
[Abm] Just like [G] the ones [Bb] I used [Ebm] to know
Where the treetops glisten
[B]
Children [Ebm] listen to the air
Say bells in the [Eb] snow
[Bb] [Ab] [Ebm] White [B]
[Abm] Christmas
[B] With every [Bb] Christmas [Eb] card
May your [Ebm] days be [Bb] merry [Ebm] and bright
[Ab]

[Bb]
[Abm] [B]
[A] [Eb]

[E]
[Bb] What?
Oop, oop, delightful.
Oop, ba ba da ba.
Sorry about the non-swaying in time Dodie.
She's [Abm] very lost.
She doesn't know what she's doing.
Now, here's a little story about a reindeer and all of his reindeer mates sang a [N] hymn in a minor key.
Yes.
Enjoy.
This is, I'd say, like a classic, classic minor Christmas Dodie cover.
Okay, let's go.
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer had a very shy look
And if you ever was away, you would even say it glows
[E] All of the other reindeer, who still often go in the forest
They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer [Dm] games
Then one foggy [Am] Christmas Eve Santa came to [Dm] say
[C]
And much later
[G]
[Am]
that [E] night
[Ab] As they shouted out with glee
Rudolph [F] the red-nosed [E] reindeer
You'll go down in
Right.
I have saved [N] the grand finale.
The piece de resistance.
When I started recording these, I was convinced that I was lost.
I was like, man, I've done all of them.
I can't do this again.
They're all the same.
I hate whatever I make.
So I just started recording anything at all.
[Fm] It wasn't a Christmas song.
And [E] then it turned [D] into this, like, giant minor Christmas mashup.
I played to [Bb] Hazel and she was like, Dodie, you've made [Abm] trailer music.
This is music for a trailer.
I was like, oh, damn.
And then we started planning this whole, like, COVID Christmas trailer.
With, like, you know, clips of Boris and Matt Hancock wiping a fake tear from his dry ass eye.
Sprouts missing from shells.
[Bb] Hansan in gravy.
And then, um, I thought it would be quite insensitive.
Death.
So anyway, [Abm] instead, I filmed a very dramatic, fadey compilation.
So here's me living my best life.
[C] [Ab] Boom.

it.
We did it.
This year has been so different.
So, so weird.
I'm trying to scrape any ounce of gratitude I have in me for it.
It's hard.
It's so hard.
Definitely something I need to practice.
I would urge [Bb] you to too.
To too.
Or [Abm] just wallow in self-pity [Ab] and cry.
But eat loads of potatoes.
[Bb] Okay.
Bye!
See you next year, even though time is [G] meaningless.
And [Ab] this is just one long blur of [Bb] days.
[N] Alright,
