Lyrics with chords

C We wish you a merry F Christmas,

we D7 wish you a merry G7 Christmas,

we E7 wish you a merry Am Christmas

and a F happy G7 New C Year!

Good tidings we G7 bring

to D7 you and your G7 kin;

we C wish you a merry Am Christmas

and a F happy G7 New C Year!

Now bring us some figgy F pudding,

now D7 bring us some figgy G7 pudding,

now E7 bring us some figgy Am pudding,

and F bring some G7 out C here!

Good tidings we G7 bring

to D7 you and your G7 kin;

we C wish you a merry Am Christmas

and a F happy G7 New C Year!

For we all like figgy F pudding,

we D7 all like figgy G7 pudding,

we E7 all like figgy Am pudding,

so F bring some G7 out C here!

Good tidings we G7 bring

to D7 you and your G7 kin;

we C wish you a merry Am Christmas

and a F happy G7 New C Year!

And we won’t go until we’ve got F some,

we D7 won’t go until we’ve got G7 some,

we E7 won’t go until we’ve got Am some,

so F bring some G7 out C here!

Good tidings we G7 bring

to D7 you and your G7 kin;

we C wish you a merry Am Christmas

and a F happy G7 New C Year!
