Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse

 Well it's cold outside and the lights are low

 Everything around me is covered in the deep snow

 And I'm thinking about you

 Well the gifts are laid beneath that tree

 And I'm wondering to myself if you're thinking about me

 Are you thinking about me?

Prechorus

 Coz it's not like I just wanna be

The guy that you're waiting to see

 When every festivity is over

Chorus

 I wanna be the 12 days wrapped in 1

 I wanna be your drummer boy, burrum bum bum bum

 I wanna be the eggnog in your rum

 I wanna be (I wanna be)

 I wanna be the north star that you see

 I wanna be the partridge in your tree

  [G/f#]

I wanna know your Christmas just ain't Christmas

 Without me

Verse

 Those city sidewalks and that holiday style

 Ain't got nothing on me and my holiday smile

 Don't you like my smile?

 Well the table looks nice and the gravy looks hot

 But I counted all the chairs and you're still missing one spot

 Hope it's not my spot

Prechorus

 Coz it's not like I just wanna be

The guy that you're waiting to see

 When every festivity is over

Chorus

 I wanna be the 12 days wrapped in 1

 I wanna be your drummer boy, burrum bum bum bum

 I wanna be the eggnog in your rum

 I wanna be (I wanna be)

 I wanna be the north star that you see

 I wanna be the partridge in your tree

  [G/f#]

I wanna know your Christmas just ain't Christmas

 Without me

Bridge

The lights are dimmer and they've lost their glow

*//This part's kinda fast

You and me should've been making angels in the snow

It's not like every Christmas you can say that you are mine

And if you pass this up, if you mess this up

 I might not be your Valentine

(I might not be your Valentine)

Chorus

 I wanna be the 12 days wrapped in 1

 I wanna be your drummer boy, burrum bum bum bum

 I wanna be the eggnog in your rum

 I wanna be (I wanna be)

 I wanna be the north star that you see

 I wanna be the partridge in your tree

  [G/f#]

I wanna know your Christmas just ain't Christmas

  [G/f#]

Yeah, Christmas just ain't Christmas

  [G/f#]

No, Christmas just ain't Christmas
