Intro:E7 F#m x4
E7 F#m
Hello Dan, itʼs Joe here,
E7 F#m
I hope youʼre keeping well,
E7 F#m
it’s the 21st of December
E7 F#m
now they’re ringing the last bell.
A E7
If I get good behaviour
A B
Iʼll be out of here by July,
E7 F#m
won’t you kiss my kids on Christmas day,
E7 F#m
please donʼt let them cry for me.
Instrumental:E7 F#m x2
E7 F#m
I guess the brothers are driving down from Queensland
E7 F#m
and Stellaʼs flying in from the coast.
E7 F#m
They say itʼs gonna be a hundred degrees, even more maybe,
E7 F#m
but that wonʼt stop the roast.
A E7
Whoʼs gonna make the gravy now?
A B
I bet it wonʼt taste the same
E7 F#m
Just add flour, salt, a little red wine and donʼt forget a
E7 F#m
dollop of tomato sauce for sweetness and that extra tang.
E7 F#m
And give my love to Angus and to Frank and Dolly,
E7 F#m
Tell ʼem all Iʼm sorry I screwed up this time.
E7 F#m
And look after Rita, Iʼll be thinking of her,
E7 F#m E7 F#m
early Christmas morning, when Iʼm standing in line.
E7 F#m
I hear Maryʼs got a new boyfriend,
E7 F#m
I hope he can hold his own
E7 F#m
Do you remember the last one? What was his name again?
E7 F#m
Just a little too much cologne
A E7
And Roger, you know Iʼm even gonna miss Roger
A B
ʼCause thereʼs sure as hell no one in here I want to fight
E7 F#m
Oh praise the Baby Jesus, have a Merry Christmas,
E7 F#m
Iʼm really gonna miss it, all the treasure and the trash
E7 F#m
And later in the evening, I can just imagine,
E7 F#m
Youʼll put on Junior Murvin and push the tables back
E7 F#m
And youʼll dance with Rita, I know you really like her,
E7 F#m
Just donʼt hold her too close, oh brother please donʼt stab me in the back
E7 F#m
I didnʼt mean to say that, itʼs just my mind it plays up,
E7 F#m
Multiplies each matter, turns imagination into fact
E7 F#m
You know I love her badly, sheʼs the one to save me,
E7 F#m
Iʼm gonna make some gravy, Iʼm gonna taste the fat
E7 F#m
Tell her that Iʼm sorry, yeah I love her badly,
E7 F#m
tell ʼem all Iʼm sorry, and kiss the sleepy children for me.
E7 F#m
You know one of these days, Iʼll be making gravy,
E7 F#m E7 F#m
Iʼll be making plenty, Iʼm gonna pay ʼem all back.
