Intro: C
[Chorus A:]
The [C]season's upon us, it's [Em]that time of [C]year
There's [C]Brandy and eggnog, there's [G]plenty of [C]cheer
There's [C]lights on the trees and there's [Em]wreaths to be [C]hung
There's [C]mischief and mayhem and [G]songs to be [C]sung
There's [C]bells and there's holly, the [Em]kids are gung-[C]ho
True loves [C]finds a kiss beneath [G]fresh mistle[C]toe
Some [C]families are messed up while [Em]others are [C]fine
C G-hold C
If you think yours is crazy, well you should see mine
My [C]sisters are wackjobs, I [Em]wish I had [C]none
Their [C]husbands are losers and [G]so are their [C]sons
My [C]nephew's a horrible [Em]wise little [C]twit
He once [C]gave me a nice gift wrapped [G]box full of [C]shit
He [C]likes to pelt carolers with [Em]icy snow[C]balls
I'd [C]like to take him out back and deck [G]more than the [C]halls
With [C]family like this I would [Em]have to con[C]fess
I'd be [C]better off lonely, dis[G]traught and de[C]pressed
[Chorus B:]
The [C]season's upon us, it's [Em]that time of [C]year
There's [C]Brandy and eggnog, there's [G]plenty of [C]cheer
There's [C]lights on the trees and there's [Em]wreaths to be [C]hung
There's [C]mischief and mayhem and [G]songs to be [C]sung
They call this [F]Christmas where I'm [C]from
My [C]mom likes to cook push our [Em]buttons and [C]prod
My [C]brother just brought home a[G]nother big [C]broad
The [C]eyes rollin' whispers come [Em]love from the [C]kitchen
I'd [C]come home more often if they'd [G]only quit [C]bitchin'
[C]Dad on the other hand's a [Em]selfish old [C]sod
[C]Drinks whiskey alone with my [G]miserable [C]dog
[C]Who won't run off fetch sure he [Em]couldn't care [C]less
He [C]defiled my teddy bear and [G]left me the [C]mess
[Chorus B:]
The [C]season's upon us, it's [Em]that time of [C]year
There's [C]Brandy and eggnog, there's [G]plenty of [C]cheer
There's [C]lights on the trees and there's [Em]wreaths to be [C]hung
There's [C]mischief and mayhem and [G]songs to be [C]sung
They call this [F]Christmas where I'm [C]from
[C]The table's set, we [G]raise a toast
The [Em]father, son, and the [F]Holy Ghost
I'm [C]so glad this day only [G]comes once a year
You can keep your [Em]opinions, your presents, your happy new [C]year
They call this [F]Christmas where I'm [C]from
[Chorus:]
The [C]season's upon us, it's [Em]that time of [C]year
