[Eb] [F]
[G] [Bb] Christmas in jail, Christmas in jail, had a little too much [C] to drink.
Ain't got no bank, ain't got no bank, and the spinning wheel's even [Bb] a claim.
I was in the wrong lane, feeling no pain, so I moved my [A] car to [C] 75.
Ran right into the UPSC, and they say I'm lucky to [Bb] be alive.
[Eb] Merry [Ebm] Christmas, [Ebm] Happy New [Bb] Year, they're singing down the street.
[C] While everybody's having Christmas [Gm] turkey, [Dm] they give me bread and water [Cm] to eat.
[D] [Bb] Christmas in jail, Christmas in jail, wore my shoes out facing [C] the floor.
Got rocks in my hand, I wish I was dead, ain't gonna drink and drive [Bb] no more.
[Eb] Merry Christmas, Happy New [Gm] Year, they're singing down [Bb] the street.
[C] While everybody's having [Gb] Christmas turkey, [E] they give me [Cm] bread and water to eat.
[C] [Bb] Christmas in jail, Christmas in jail, [D] wore my shoes out facing [C] the floor.
[D] Got rocks in my hand, I wish I was dead, ain't gonna drink and [Bb] drive no more.
[F] [C] Ain't gonna drink and drive [Bb] no more.
[C] Ain't gonna drink and drive [Bb] no more.
Merry Christmas!
