It's the holiday season all [F#] around.
I think [F] we need to finish up our little show
with a couple of little Christmas [C#] songs.
I love you all.
[G#]
[A#] This song [G#m] I wrote with my husband Doug.
[G#] Right there we were driving back from a gig
in Fort McMurray, [E] Alberta.
Which is at the [D#] very top up there
in the tundra kind of places.
There was wolves and mooses on the road.
[B]
[D#] And mooses, plural.
That's another one.
Mooses, [B] plural.
Mooses.
It was there.
And it was [F#] 250 miles.
This is probably [N] not the case anymore,
but back when I wrote this,
250 miles to the nearest gas station.
[B] Because the mooses and the wolves,
they charged an arm and a leg for that gas.
Can't wait.
Shhh.
[C#]
Okay, so this song came out [D#m] of that little trip.
It was the end [C#m] of April and it was snowing like crazy.
[B]
And Doug was [E] of course all over Christmas
because Christmas for Doug is [D#] Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
That's Christmas.
[B] Yeah, in [G#] a way, it's kind of the [F#] truth.
But I was back in the mood because it was snowing like crazy.
I made him do this one because it was 250 [E] miles
until he could get another [B] snack anyway.
Go ahead and hear it.
You count it.
[F#]
[B] There's a wondrous sight, a joyful sound, on a Christmas [F#] Eve.
The whole kids, all friends, [B] family.
From the hall, the nun, and the castle.
To the number-bed, the [F#] hunk, the queen, and the fifth-day-old [B] crown.
The jolly man in a prank suit.
Did you ever feel [F#] panic?
Got the whistle, swirl, and all the girls.
The bigs and [B] the families.
The big and the girls.
The girls, the softs and the low.
Well, all they [F#] shoutin' at is,
I'm not your old friend.
You're what you'll be.
Sister of brown [B] on Christmas tree.
[E] Wait!
[B] You know [F#] you're not the one.
[B]
[D#] I [G#m] never moved that slow.
[C#] That's what I [F#] did.
[B] The western girls can't be still at the night of night.
[F#] Who packed your toy?
You said [B] brown on Christmas tree.
[F#]
[B]
[F#]
[C#m] [B]
Oh, what's that little chilly creep?
Still the fuck [F#] is all you do in the time [B] that I need?
I'm gonna make everyone stand up.
But it's gonna be [F#] nasty to the taste.
Who packed your toy?
Sister [B] of brown on Christmas tree.
[F#]
[C#] [E] [B]
Oh, you'll never get a kiss.
[D#] I [G#m] never moved that [C#] slow.
That's what [F#] I did.
[B] The western girls can't be still at the night of [F#] night.
Who packed your toy?
Sister of [B] brown on Christmas [F#] tree.
