(Intro:)  | Cmaj7 Am | F G7 |

     G7           Cmaj7       Am        F         G7      Cmaj7 Am F
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring ting tingling too 

     G7       Cmaj7  Am             F             G7         Cmaj7 Am F
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you 

   G7       Cmaj7   Am           F            G7         Cmaj7 Am F
Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling "You Hoo"

     G7        Cmaj7  Am           F             G7          C  F  C
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you 


      F#m7                           B7  E      
Giddy-yap giddy-yap, giddy-yap let's go,  

      Cdim         E6
Let's look at the snow 

A      F#m        A      B7      E     E6   E   E6
We're riding in a wonderland of snow 

      Em        B+         Em7       A7   Dmaj7
Giddy-yap giddy-yap, giddy-yap it's grand    

     F#m7         D6
Just holding your hand 

Dm7            G7                      Cdim   Fdim   G7
We're gliding along with the song of a wintry fairy land.


     Fdim      Cmaj7    Am       F      G7      Cmaj7 Am F
Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we 

       G7      Cmaj7 Am              F           G7          Cmaj7 Am F
We're snuggled up  together like two birds of a feather would be 

       G7      Cmaj7   Am          F     G7         Cmaj7 Am F
Let's take the road before us and sing a chorus or two

     G7       Cmaj7  Am             F            G7          C   F  C
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you 


          G        Am7  G/B      C      G  D9   G
There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray

     G        Am7    G/B    C     G  D9   G6
It'll be the perfect ending of a perfect day 

 Am7      Em                   Am     Cdim    B7     B7/F#   Em
We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop 

        A                  E7                 A       D7
At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop -- Pop! Pop! Pop! 


          G      Am7    G/B     C      G     D9   G
There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy 

           G     Am7      G/B    C        G  D9   G6
When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie 

Am7   G                 Am     D7      Cdim        B7      Em
It'll nearly be like a picture print by Cur - ri - er and Ives 

G     Am7        G             Am7         G
These wonderful things are the things we remember 

      Am7        G
All through our lives.

A     Em7        A              Em7        A
These wonderful things are the things we remember 

     Em7         A
All through our lives.


     A7          Dmaj7        D6       G/B        A7      Dmaj7 D6 G/B
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring ting tingling too 

     A7        Dmaj7  D6           G/B           A7          D  Bm  G6
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you 

    A7      Dmaj7    D6         G/B         A7           Dmaj7 D6 G/B
Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling "You Hoo"

 A7           Dmaj7   D6           G/B            A7         Dmaj7 G/B  D6
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you




For the longest time, I thought this was already on the site. When I 
realized, right before Christmas, that it was not, I posted a version on 
the guitar newsgroups. Not all of them showed up. What the heck...at least 
it's here for next Christmas.
