They Might Be Giants – Christmas In The Big House chords

[Intro]

  C

 

 

[Chorus]

 C

Christmas in the big house

     Dm               G

For smoking rubber cigars

      Dm                G

And driving somebody's car

  C    Em

Away

    C

Tonight I'm in the bucket (tonight he's in the bucket)

         Dm               G

Making friends with the guard (Merry Christmas)

       Dm                  G

And playing a song on the bars (Merry Christmas)

         C   Em

With a spoon

 

 

[Verse 1]

     C

And I'm looking out

         Em

Of the window, I can see

          F

All the chimneys on the houses

          C            G

And the sleigh in the sky

     C

And I'm breaking out

       Em

I got plans Can't you see?

          F

I'll be digging past the bones

        C               G

In my tunnel then I'll fly

 

 

[Chorus]

  C

Christmas in the big house (Christmas in the big house)

     Dm               G

For smoking rubber cigars (Merry Christmas)

      Dm                G

And driving somebody's car (Happy New Year)

  C    Em

Away

    C

Tonight I'm in the bucket (tonight he's in the bucket)

         Dm             G

Begging some guy for a loan (Merry Christmas)

        Dm        G

Hoping I'll be alone (Happy New Year)

      C   Em   G   C

Next year
