|: C D G A
Once a year my friend puts on a red suit

C D G A
and hangs around with me and my wife

C D Em -
but lately I've been feeling jealous

F - G - :|
each time she climbs on his knee

And she stands beneath the mistletoe screaming
for him to stand beneath the mistletoe screaming
now I can't help but feeling jealous
each time she climbs on his knee
why must she climb on his knee



Chorus:
C D G -
I saw my baby wearing Santa's beard

C D G -
she kissed him once and whispered in his ear

C D G -
I saw my baby wearing Santa's beard

Am - F -
I wish he would go - he's breaking up my home



2.
She always had this twisted side to her
but she'd never drag my name around town
but lately she's been humming cheating songs
and I don't like that fat guy around
no I don't like that fat guy around

(Chorus)

Coda:
C D G A
