Verse 1:
              A
The Cadillacs roll, Katie step to the side
G                  D
Tellin' jokes with strangers
  E                              A
A kind glance at a lonely passer-by
A
Jingle bells, electric lights
         G                  D
Oh, they rattle 'gainst the shopping cart
E                     A
Even on the fourth of July

Chorus:
F                     D#
Christmas Katie calls people names
        Gm                         F               E
They're Dancers, and Blitzens, and angels on high


Verse 2:
       A
Chilly bones laughin' after the night
        G                 D
Oh, the hungries come and go
      E                         A
As he blows with his eyes froze tight
        A
Slidell boy, big city nights
       G                D
Oh, he tips his hat for dinner
   E                       A
An old stray beggin' for a bite

Chorus:
F                          D#
Oh, Christmas Katie, babe, blow your horn
Gm                              Bb
Play something happy, leave the sad one's alone
F                   D#
Crackin' a smile as small as wishes
Gm                          F                 E
Make us some merry, make it last for a while


Jam over 2 verse chord progressions and finally A


Verse 3:
                     A
Hey, puttin' out the dog, put the wheels on tight
    G            D
Oh, play another sweet song
E                     A
Never wanna see Katie cry
A
Jingle bells, electric lights
     G                  D
They rattle 'gainst the shopping cart
E                     A
Even on the fourth of July

Chorus:
    F                     D#
Oh, Christmas Katie, baby blow that horn
G                               Bb
Play something happy, leave the sad ones alone
F                 D#
Slidell smiles as small as wishin'
G                           F                 E
Make us some merry, make it last for a while
                     B
Oh, make it last all night!
