Information: Following conventional lyric notation practice, words are broken into syllables to interpret the phrasing of the lyrics. Each word syllable in the lyrics below represents a note on the vocal part of this arrangement. A hyphen '-' or trailing hyphens following a word syllable indicates that the word syllable is extended over more than one note. ============================= Title: The Christmas Song Key Signature: C# Major Artist: Nat 'King' Cole Songwriters:M.Torme/R.wells Copyright:Chapell Morris Ltd HR:MN:SC Total Running Time:00:03:21 =============================
INTRO . . . . Chest-nuts roast-ing on an op-en fire Jack frost nip-ping at your nose
Yule-tide car-ols be-ing sung by a choir and folks dressed up like Esk-i-mos
Eve-ry-bo-dy knows a turk-ey and some Mis-tle-toe help to make the seas-on bright
Tin-y tots with their eyes all a-glow will find it hard to sleep to-night
They know that San-ta's on his way
He's load-ed lot's of toys and good-ies on his sleigh
And eve-ry moth-ers child is gon--na spy
to see if Rein-deer real-ly know how to fly
And so I'm of-fer-ing this simp-le phrase - to kids from one to nine-ty two
Al-though it's been said man-y times, man-y ways, Mer-ry Christ-mas - to you
