[C]
[Bb] I was in the wrong lane, feeling no pain,
Seat my [A] car to seventy [C]-five, Ran right into Yuki Castle,
And they say I'm lucky to be [Bb] alive.
[Eb] Merry [Db] Christmas, [Ebm] Happy New [Bb] Year, They're singing [F] down the street,
[C] While everybody's having [Gm] Christmas turkey, [Dm] They give me bread and water [Cm] to eat.
[D] [Bb] Christmas in jail, Christmas in jail, Wore my shoes out facing [C] the floor,
Got rocks in my head, I wish I was dead, Ain't gonna drink and drive [Bb] no more.
[Fm] [Eb] Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, They're singing [Bb] down the street,
[C] While everybody's having Christmas [E] turkey, They give [Cm] me bread and water to eat.
[C] [Bb] Christmas in jail, Christmas in jail, Wore my shoes out [C] facing the floor,
Got rocks in my head, I wish I was dead, Ain't gonna drink and [Bb] drive no [F] more.
[C] Ain't gonna drink and drive no [Bb] more.
Ain't gonna drink and drive [Bb] no more.
[G] Merry Christmas!
