Chords:
Transpose:
This is a gorgeous cover by Kate of a Tim Minchin song :)
Just listen to the song to get the hang of the finger-picking, it's really simple!

Capo 4

INTRO:  C x 4

CI'm looking forward to Christmas
F CIt's sentimental I know, but I just really like it
CI'm hardly religious
F C I'd rather break bread with Dawkins than Desmond Tutu to be honest
G FAnd yes I have all of the usual objections to consumerism
CThe commercialisation of an ancient religion
And the western-isation of a dead Palestinian
GPress-ganged into selling PlayStations and beer
FBut I still really like it.
CI, I really like Christmas
F CThough I'm not expecting a visit from Jesus
G I'll be seeing my dad
F E AmMy brother and sisters, my gran and my mum
F CThey'll be drinking white wine in the sun
GI'll be seeing my dad
F E AmMy sisters and brother, my gran and my mum
F CWe'll be drinking white wine in the sun.
CI don't go for ancient wisdom
F CI don't believe just 'cause ideas are tenacious it means that they're worthy
CI get freaked out by churches
F CSome of the hymns that they sing have nice chords but the lyrics are dodgy
G And yes I have all of the usual objections
F CTo the mis-education of children forced into a cult institution
And taught to externalise blame And to feel ashamed
GAnd to judge things as plain right and wrong
FBut I quite like the songs.
CI'm not expecting big presents
F CThe old combination of socks, jocks and chocolate is just fine by me.
G'Cause I'll be seeing my dad
F E AmMy brother and sisters, my gran and my mum
F CThey'll be drinking white wine in the sun
GI'll be seeing my dad
F E AmMy sisters and brother, my gran and my mum
F CThey'll be drinking white wine in the sun.
FAnd you my baby girl
CMy jetlagged infant daughter
FYou'll be handed round the room
CLike a puppy at a primary school
FAnd you're too young to know
C But you will learn yourself one day
FThat wherever you are and whatever you face
F AmThese are the people who'll make you feel safe in this world
? My sweet blue-eyed girl
FAnd if my baby girl
CWhen you're twenty-one or thirty-one
FAnd Christmas comes around
CAnd you find yourself nine thousand miles from home
F GYou'll know whatever comes
G E AmYour brother and sister, and me and your mum
F CWill be waiting for you in the sun
C GGirl, when Christmas comes
G Your brothers and sisters, your aunts and your uncles
E AmYour grandparents, cousins, and me and your mum
F CWill be drinking white wine in the sun
F CWe'll be waiting for you in the sun
FBaby, whenever you come
CWe'll be drinking white wine in the sun
FWaiting.
CI, I really like Christmas
F CIt's sentimental I know...
