Chords for Home for Christmas - Daryl Hall & John Oates

I don't know where that came from.
Did you just _ [N] go_
Yeah, exactly.
_ It's got that Woody sound.
The Woody sound of the wood.
[C] Yeah, I know.
_ I always sing it wrong. _
[Bm] Okay.
_ I think we got the idea.
We got the effect.
_ [B] I'm just reveling in it, man.
That's the effect I_
You should play [G] that on stage, man.
Would you consider playing that?
That's so great.
It sounds great.
_ I started with this instrument right here.
It's a 30-year-old.
This was it right [D] here.
That was it. _ _
That's a song I wrote with T-Bone
and Greg Beek in the Bahamas.
It [D] was the last day.
We had to pack up all the gear to get out. _
And Darryl had this idea
for Home for Christmas.
He had this song in his head.
The power went out.
And [Bm] Darryl said,
let's just write this song.
And so we _ [E] banged around,
and the song just came out very quickly.
He had a great chorus, a great start,
[D] a lot of lyrics, but the three of us
just kind of banged it out.
The whole point of that song, I think,
has a relevance because it is the one time
that people go home, even if it's just for a day.
I have never missed a Christmas in my life
with my family back in Pennsylvania. _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
I [D] swear to you, I kid you not,
the minute the song was finished,
the power came back on.
