Chords for Slade - Merry Christmas Everybody

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Alan!
About my gladioloid.
Yeah, see me later.
Now, is it right that this song has become your pension fund?
Well, the bank manager keeps him very happy.
It's made us zillionaires, squillionaires.
In pesetas or potatoes?
In pesetas.
_ It's been re-released eight times since you first brought it out.
Eighteen times.
Eighteen?
Eighteen.
It's been in the top forty eight times.
Kill that researcher.
Yeah.
Good job it's Christmas, Caroline.
_ _ Now, you can't, surely, I mean everybody thinks they've got a big hit on their hands.
They always hope they've got a big hit.
Did you know it was that special when you did it all that time ago?
We knew it would be a hit.
We were pretty certain we'd written a hit song,
but we didn't realise it'd be going eighteen years on.
And you keep being drawn out to re-perform it every Christmas?
Of course we do.
We're coming on shows like this, you know.
Quality stuff as well, eh?
Yeah, good stuff.
Tell me about the album.
What's on it?
We heard Universe.
Well, it's all, it's a Greatest Hits album.
It's called Wall of Hits.
There's also a video out called Wall of Hits,
and it contains all our classic records from the seventies and the eighties.
Everything from Chopin to Mozart to_ Yes.
All quite romantic stuff.
One of those that we've come to know you for.
Well, I like the Universe, so let's whip into this,
because before we plunge headlong into Christmas with Slade,
don't forget to join me and Judy tomorrow at five past twelve
for a special Song for Christmas show to discover this year's winner.
Until then, Merry Christmas everybody!
