The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open fire) By john Denver







C          Dm6           Em    Am/F
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
C    C6    C7              F   E/G#
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Am       Fm6/Ab       C/G      B
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
    Emaj7         Bb7/F      G
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

          C       Dm7             Em      Am/F
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
C    C6  C7             F      E/G#
Help to make the season bright
Am   Fm6/Ab          C/G      B
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
     Em      Am      F/G   G   C
Will find it hard to sleep tonight


               Gm7           Am7/F
They know that Santa's on his way
            Bb/G              Gm/C
He’s loaded lots of toys and goodies
       Am7/F
On his sleigh
          Ab/F           Ab/Bb    Bb/Eb
And every mother’s child is gonna spy 
          D7                          Fm6/D  G
To see if Reindeer really know how to fly


    C      Dm6           Em           Am/F
And so I’m offering this simple phrase
     C  C6   C7            F    E/G#
To kids from one to ninety-two
   Am             Fm/Ab     C/G         B
Although its been said many times, many ways
F     C/G   Dm/G   C
Merry Christmas to you
