[Verse 1]
       D7                      C
Pretty Paper is playing on the jukebox
    G                              D7
And mistletoe is hanging above the bar
          D7                                   C
I want to thank you for this broken heart that I've got
      G                   D7                    G
Merry Christmas girl, wherever in the world you are


[Chorus]
                G    F         C
It's gonna be a ho-o-onky tonk Christmas
          G                                 D7
For these silent nights at home are killing me
                G   F         C
It's gonna be a hoo-onky tonk Christmas
    G            D7                G
But I'll be over you by New Year's Eve

[Verse 2]
     D7                             C
Blue Christmas, turn it up, I wanna hear it
         G                              D7
So I can unwrap all them memories in my mind
    D7                          C
Hey Joe, pour me some Christmas spirit
     G                 D7             G
If I make it through December I'll be fine


[Chorus]
                G    F         C
It's gonna be a ho-o-onky tonk Christmas
          G                              D7
For these silent nights at home are killing me
                G   F         C
It's gonna be a hoo-onky tonk Christmas
    G            D7                G
But I'll be over you by New Year's Eve

C         G            D                 G     G
    Yeah, I'll be over you by New Year's Eve
