Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]It was snowin' [F]on Christmas Eve
She took me up to Walker's [C]Hill
With a flasher filled with [F]eggnog
And [G]rum from her daddy still
[C]We broke in the shed, took out the sled
[F]To [C]sit[F] and watch the lights of tow[C]n
I went for [F]a kiss and the s[C]led did shift
And sud[G]denly we're flyin' [C]down
[F]There's a choir on the corner
Singin' [C]a hallelujah carol
There's a [G]santa ringin' a bell
I [C]think it's my cousin Daryl,
normal [F]people in the town square
A [C]tree and a star atop it,
and I'm [G]ridin' a sleigh in a whiskey haze
And I don't know how to [C]stop [F]it
Look out, [C]darlin' Charming
[G]fruit[C][F][C]
[G][C][F][C][F][C][F]
[C]We broke in[G]to the congregation,
about [C]90 mile an hour.
Sister [F]Hazel, she just fainted
Banker [C]Bill had a heart attack
They had [G]people in the manger
Though I was stranger
As the [C]baby kept waving back
There's a [F]choir on the corner
Singin' a [C]hallelujah carol
There's a [G]Santa ringin' a bell
I [C]think it's my cousin Daryl
Normal [F]people in the town square
A [C]tree to start a tompin'
I'm [G]ridin' a sleigh of whiskey haze
And I don't know how to [C]stop [F]it
Hang [C]on [G]darlin'
[C]For at love has [F]died[C][G][C][F][C][F]
[C]Sgt[F]. McKenzie, the town's traffic cop,
was [C]workin' a late night shift,
blowin' his [G]whistle and
wavin' his arms.
Sud[C]denly we gave him a lift,
we burst [F]through the picture window
at [C]Sully's pub downtown.
I [G]said, back the cop,
when this thing stops,
you're gonna buy me and the
[C]bar and all around.
There's a [F]choir on the corner
singing a [C]hallelujah carol
There's a [G]Santa ringing a bell
I [C]think it's my cousin Daryl
And all the [F]people in the town square
[Dm]A tr[F]ee t[C]o start a topic
And I'm [G]riding a sleigh on whiskey hay
And I got no idea how to [C]stop [F]her
At [C]least I'll be [G]proud[C]
Joy is [F]nowhere to [C]find
[G]Hang on [C]Yee -haw!
