[Verse 1]
           Em
When I was small,
    Am           G
I believed in Santa Claus
C         Em      Am  G
 Though I knew it was my dad
C            Em         Am          G
 And I would hang up my stocking at Christmas
C        Em            Am  G
 Open my presents, and I'd be glad

[Pre-Chorus]
Am        G           F             Em       Am
  But the last time I played Father Christmas
           G        F             Em
I stood outside a department store
C          Em         Am            G
 A gang of kids came over and mugged me
C               Em       Am          G
 And knocked my reindeer to the floor
They said

[Chorus]
F            C   F             C
Father Christmas, give us some money
F            C          F           G
 Don't mess around with those silly toys
      F          C       F             C
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
F             C        F                    G F G
 We want your bread so don't make us annoyed
F    G       F   Em Em F
Give all the toys
G                   C   F G C
 to the little rich boys

[Verse 2]
              Em        Am              G
Don't give my brother a Steve Austin outfit
C              Em       Am G
 Don't give my sister a cuddly toy
   C               Em       Am       G  C
We don't want a jigsaw or Monopoly money
        Em       Am   G
We only want the real McCoy

[Chorus]
F            C   F             C
Father Christmas, give us some money
F               C     F             G
 We'll beat you up if you make us annoyed
      F          C       F             C
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
F            C          F           G
 Don't mess around with those silly toys

[Pre-Chorus]
Am            G       F             Em       Am
  But give my daddy a job 'cause he needs one
        G        F             Em
He's got lots of mouths to feed
C              Em
 But if you've got one,
         Am         G
I'll have  a machine gun
C         Em            Am      G
 So I can scare all the kids on the street

[Chorus]
F            C   F             C
Father Christmas, give us some money
F            C          F           G
 Don't mess around with those silly toys

We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over

[Verse 3]
Have yourself a merry merry Christmas
Have yourself a good time
But remember the kids who got nothing
                                    G
While you're drinking down your wine
