Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

This year for Christmas

There's something I'd really like

So if you're up there somewhere Santa

Please don't bring me another bike

I don't need any ugly sweaters

And I don't play much basketball

But there's something kind of special

That I want most of all

Chorus

I want an alien for Christmas

Bring me an alien this year

I want a little green guy, about three feet high

With seventeen eyes, who knows how to fly

I want an alien for Christmas this year

Verse 2

(same chords from verse 1)

He can live in the bathtub

So don't worry about a thing

And I'll take him out for walks

When it gets nicer in the spring

I'll always keep him company

He'll never be alone

You can hang around the house all day

And watch the twilight zone

Chorus

Interlude

Last Chorus:

I want an alien for Christmas

Bring me an alien this year

I want a little green guy, about three feet high

With seventeen eyes, who knows how to fly

I want an alien for Christmas this year

I want an alien for Christmas this year
