[Verse 1]
[D]Well the
creek's froze over and the [A]geese fly high
And the storm [Bm]clouds hanging
[G]in the westtern sky
[D]Everybody's got a twi[A]nkle in their eye
[G]Out on the rural [A]route

[A]cooking up a storm
[Bm]Fire in the fireplace [G]cozy and warm
[D]It must be Chr[A]istmas time
down [D]South[A]

[Verse 2]
Hitch[D]ing up the wagon
my [A]Daddy and me
Driv[Bm]ing to the backwoods
[G]cutting down a tree
[D]Take it on home to the fam[A]ily
Momma [G]get the decorations [A]out
[D]Grandpa's bringing in an
[A]armload of wood
He's [Bm]grinning like a possum so you
[G]know he's feeling [D]good
It must be [A]Christmas time
down [G]South
[D]Christmas time [G]down

And all [F#m]the joy it's bringing
[C]Don't it make you feel
[G]like singing
[D]Everybody's got that hol
[F#m]iday feeling
[E]There just ain't any [A]doubt
'Cause there's [D]holly in the window
[A]Mu sic in the air
[Bm]Manger scene setting
on the [G]courthouse square
[D]It must be Chr[A]istmas time
down South
[D][A][G][D]

[Verse 4]
[D]People stopping by just to [A]say hello
Well [Bm]howdy everybody do you
[G]think it's gonna snow
Will [D]you stay for supper no I
[A]guess we'd better go
Got to [G]get on back to [A]the house
[D]People hugging necks
[A]and people shaking hands
Merry [Bm]Christmas everybody

[D]It must be Christmas[A] time
down [G]South
[D]Christmas time [G]down South

Oh what a joy[F#m]ous season
We [C]never do for[G]get the reason
[D]Je sus Christ [F#m]was born this day
[E]And that's what it's all [A]about
