Intro

Intro

(Verse)

Continues until #END OF FINGERSTYLE# where a single-strum G will be played directly

after the fingerstyle C.

Where will he get those toys

For all them girls and boys

What is there for Santa Clause to do

Hes feeling helpless now

The cause of many a row

These hard financial times affect him too

The elves had had enough

Less than minimum wage is tough

So saint nick had sent them on their way

With no one to assist,

Bills longer than the naughty list (#END OF FINGERSTYLE#)

HGow on earth would pooFr Santa Clause pay

EChildren all over the world, all countries, all races

FWake up demember 25th with disappointed faces

ENone of them with a clue what poor Saint Nick has been through

FUnderneath the Christmas tree is an I.O.U

Chorus

C/GSpare a thought forG Santa Clause this year

AmWont hear a ho ho ho exchange rates low low low

FIts pretty hard to spread that Christmas cheer

C/GHes trying to make it better, he goes through all the letters

GMolly wants a dolly and John wants a tank
