Grateful For Christmas (ver 2) by Hayes Carll

This is my favorite Christmas song and no ones seemed to have the full version so here it is!


Capo- II  
G 
Well we'd all head to Waco, for the birth of our Lord 
C 
My folks and my brother in an 82 Ford 
D 
We'd pull in the driveway filled up with cars 
C                          D
Old aunts and old uncles, Lord I see stars  


G
And then we'd run to the kitchen, you know kids and their games
C 
Play fetch with old Buster, call each other names 
D
Aunt Betty'd be singing while supper was cookings 
C                      D
We'd unwrap the gifts when no one was lookin 


 Chorus: 
C                G       C                 G 
Let's all gather round, Grandpa say the blessing 
C                   G        G                   D 
Aunt Jane, she fell asleep, Mary Kay burned the dressing 
C                              G 
But we got all our friends and family here 
C                    D               G 
And I'm grateful for Christmas this year  


G
Well this year we're in Houston, lets all get together 
C
Man I almost snow can you believe this weather
D 
Who's gonna be here, Uncle Frank can't make it 
C                   D
Since Grandpa died, I don't know if Nana can take it


G
Well this present's a sweater and the pie don't taste right 
C
And Dad and the TV are starting to fight 
D
I wish I had a drink or maybe a dozen 
C                      D
Lord what I'd give for one good lookin cousin  


Chorus: 
C                 G      C               G
So lets all gather round, dad you say the blessing 
C                  G       G                   D                        
Aunt Jane, she fell asleep, Mary Kay burned the dressing 
C                             G
But we got all our friends and family here 
C                   D              G
And I'm grateful for Christmas this year


G
Hey Mom how you doing, yeah I miss him too 
C
Nah the Christmas light don't make your hair look blue 
D
The cousins ain't coming Jon's overseas 
C                             D     
And I guess my wife loves her folks more then me 


G
But the ladies from the church said, they might stop by 
C
I brought you this picture, ahh mama don't cry 
D
Let's play cards and watch the news channel 
C                D   
I love you too, and thanks for the flannel


Chorus: 
C           G             C                    G
So lets all gather round, I gues I'll  say the blessing 
C          G                G                 D
Aunt Jane, she fell asleep, I never cared for dressing
C                              G
But we got all our friends and family here 
C                    D              G
And I'm grateful for Christmas this year  
C                        D              G
Oh, I’m grateful for Christmas this year
