JOLLY OLD SAINT NICHOLAS
Jolly old Saint Nicholas, lean your ear this way [C G7 Am Em]
Don`t you tell a single soul what I`m going to say [F C G G7]
Christmas Eve is coming soon; now my dear old man [C G7 Am Em]
Whisper what you`ll bring to me; tell me if you can [F C G7 C]

When the clock is striking twelve, when I`m fast asleep
Down the chimney, broad and black, with your pack you`ll creep
All the stockings you will find hanging in a row
Mine will be the shortest one, you`ll be sure to know

Bobby wants a pair of skates, Suzy wants a sled
Nellie wants a picture book, yellow, blue, and red
Now I think I`ll leave to you what to give the rest
Choose for me, dear Santa Claus; you will know the best.

[This chord progression is similar to Pachelbel`s Canon in D major. You can
play the melody using the available strings. Try it soft and slow and then
jump into these lyrics. It`s a kick. sj]
