Tom: D

D                   F#m            Bm        A
Miss Darla  how you sparkle like a shiny new toy
      G                D/F#       Em            A
And I know I'm just an 8-year-old lonesome cowboy
       D              F#m               Bm               A
And my only wish this Christmas is that I could call you baby
        Em              D/F#         G               A
Then a stroke of genius hit me and I got to thinking maybe

[Chorus]
        D       F#m         Bm     A
That if I had a hat made of mistletoe
G       D/F#          Em      A
I would wear it everywhere I go
           D               F#m        Bm          A
And when I got the chance  Darla  I'd pull you in close
  Em D/F#  G   A   (walk up) D
If I had a hat made of mistletoe

[Break]
D  F#m7  Bm  A  Em  D/F#  G  A (walk up A string:-0-2-4) D

[Verse 2]
D                             F#m            Bm            A
There's a pretty heart-shaped locket in that five and dime window
     G            D/F#               Em                 A
Been saving up my nickels and that's what I'm gonna get you
       D               F#m                Bm          A
'Cause you me are like mac 'n' cheese the way we go together
         Em      D/F# G                    A
We could ride my pony off into that sunset forever

[Chorus]

   D       F#m         Bm     A
If I had a hat made of mistletoe
G       D/F#         Em      A
I would wear it everywhere I go
           D               F#m        Bm          A
And when I got the chance  Darla  I'd pull you in close
  Em D/F#  G   A   (walk up) D
If I had a hat made of mistletoe

[Solo]
D  F#m  Bm  A  G  D/F#  Em  A  D  F#m  Bm  A  Em  D/F#  G  A (walk up) D

[Chorus]

   D       F#m         Bm     A
If I had a hat made of mistletoe
G            D/F#    Em           A
I'd have the bestest Christmas I know
           D               F#m        Bm          A
And when I got the chance  Darla  I'd pull you in close
  Em D/F#  G   A   (walk up) D
If I had a hat made of Mistletoe
  Em D/F#  G   A (one strum)
If I had a hat made of Mistletoe

[Outro]
D F#m Bm
                    A                    G                     D/F# Em A
I think that's mistletoe growing on the tree down by the barn
                    D                           F#m Bm
I bet a little duct tape would hold it together
  A                   G D/F#
Yep that's gonna work
        Em            A
Darla's gonna love me
