Verse

[G]Haul out the[G] holly
Put up the[G] tree [G7]before my [F]spirit [E7]falls again
[Am]Fill [D]up the [Am]stocking
I [D]may be [Am]rushing things, but [D]deck the halls again [B7]now[E7]

Chorus

For we [Am]need a little [D]Christmas
[G]Right this very [Em]minute
[Am]Candles in the [D]window
[G]Carols at the [G7]spinet
Yes, we [Am]need a little [D]Christmas
[G]Right this very [Em]minute
It [A]hasn't snowed a [A7]single flurry
But [D]Santa, dear, we're in a hurry

Verse

So [G]climb down [G]the chimney
Put up the[G] brightest [G7]string of[F] lights I've [E7]ever seen
[Am]Slice [D]up the [Am]fruitcake
[D]It's time[Am] we hung some tinsel[D] on that evergreen [B7]bough[E7]

Chorus'

For I've [Am]grown a little [D]leaner,
[G]grown a little [Em]colder,
[Am]Grown a little [D]sadder,
[G]grown a little [G7]older
And I [Am]need a little [D]angel
[G]sitting on my [Em]shoulder.
[Am]I need a little [D]Christmas[G] now
