Hayes Carll — Grateful for Christmas
Capo- II G Well we'd all head to Waco, for the birth of our Lord C My folks and my brother in an 82 Ford D We'd pull in the driveway filled up with cars C D Old aunts and old uncles, Lord I see stars G And then we'd run to the kitchen, you know kids and their games C Play fetch with old Buster, call each other names D Aunt Betty'd be singing while supper was cookings C D We'd unwrap the gifts when no one was lookin Chorus: C G C G Let's all gather round, Grandpa say the blessing C G G D Aunt Jane, she fell asleep, Mary Kay burned the dressing C G But we got all our friends and family here C D G And I'm grateful for Christmas this year G Well this year we're in Houston, lets all get together C Man I almost snow can you believe this weather D Who's gonna be here, Uncle Frank can't make it C D Since Grandpa died, I don't know if Nana can take it G Well this present's a sweater and the pie don't taste right C And Dad and the TV are starting to fight D I wish I had a drink or maybe a dozen C D Lord what I'd give for one good lookin cousin Chorus: C G C G So lets all gather round, dad you say the blessing C G G D Aunt Jane, she fell asleep, Mary Kay burned the dressing C G But we got all our friends and family here C D G And I'm grateful for Christmas this year G Hey Mom how you doing, yeah I miss him too C Nah the Christmas light don't make your hair look blue D The cousins ain't coming Jon's overseas C D And I guess my wife loves her folks more then me G But the ladies from the church said, they might stop by C I brought you this picture, ahh mama don't cry D Let's play cards and watch the news channel C D I love you too, and thanks for the flannel Chorus: C G C G So lets all gather round, I gues I'll say the blessing C G G D Aunt Jane, she fell asleep, I never cared for dressing C G But we got all our friends and family here C D G And I'm grateful for Christmas this year C D G Oh, I'm grateful for Christmas this year
