I thought Christmas day would never come
	 G/D			 A/D
But it's here at last so mom and dad
    D		      D2/F# Dmaj7/F#
The waiting's finally done
	G2		  D2/F#		   Em7
And you gotta get up, you gotta get up, you gotta get up
A7sus	 A7	  D   G/D   D  G/D D
   It's Christmas morning

Last night I heard reindeers on my roof
Well you may think I'm exaggerating but I swear I'm tellin' you the truth
And you gotta get up, you gotta get up, you gotta get up
A7sus     A7	   D  G/D   D  Em7 D/F#
    It's Christmas morning

Refrain:
G				       A7sus	         A7
  Did my sister get a baby doll, did my brother get his bike?
D2/F#			Dmaj7/F#  G2			 D/F#
 Did I get that red wagon,   the kind that makes you fly
Em7					   Asus		                  A
   Oh I hope there'll be peace on earth, I know there's good will toward men
   Bm7			E7	      Asus  A7
On account of the Baby born in Bethlehem

REFRAIN

Mom and daddy stayed up too late last night
I guess they got carried away in the Christmas candlelight
But you gotta get up, you gotta get up, you gotta get up
It's Christmas morning
        Em7              D/F#		   Gmaj9
And you gotta get up, you gotta get up, you gotta get up
  D	    G/D	 	D    G/D		   	 D2
