Green Christmas Lyrics

INTRODUCTION: G Am7 (3x) D
VERSE 1:
The streets are filled with Christmas cheer
At least it's only once a year
Perfect parcels tied with perfect bows,
And carols ringing in my ear
I'm bundled up against the cold
Lines wherever gifts are sold
Each shop window displays a Christmas scene
For everybody young and old
CHORUS:
Icicles on eavestroughs and tinsel on the tree,
But it's a green Christmas for me
VERSE 2:
Couples skating on the pond (couples skating on the pond)
Makin' angels on the lawn (makin' angels on the lawn)
Five red mittens drying on the rad
And needles shedding tannenbaum
CHORUS:
Red bows on the railings and snowflakes on the ground,
But it's a green Christmas in this town
BRIDGE:
Green, cos of everything I miss
All this mistletoe, no kiss
And with every Christmas wish
There would be no greater gift
A7 (let ring)
Than to have this envy lift
INSTRUMENTAL: G Am7 G Am7 G Am7 D
VERSE 3:
(Fa la la la...) Carolers are at my door (Fa la la la...)
Don't wanna hear them anymore
CHORUS:
Stockings on the mantle
The snow's here everyday
But it's a green Christmas anyway
Red nose on the reindeer and tinsel on the tree
But it's a green Christmas for me
