Where the [C] redwoods been [G] burning for [A7] days [D7]
[G] While the gold em[B7] bers glow Over [Em] Sacramento
They [Am] say we're getting [D] snow in L[G] A
Oh, they're [G] hanging the ti[B7] nsel in [Em] Times Square
And the [C] traders down [G] on Saint Mark's [A7] Place [D7]
No one [G] answers their [B7] door for caro[Em] lers in New York
But hey, [Am] we're getting [D] snow in L[G] A
So [G] Holy, [B7] Holy [Em] Christmas [C] Day
[G] Holy, [B7] Holy [Em] come what [C] may
And there's [G] six feet ofsnow in the [B7] San Fernando
Weighing [Em] heavy on [D] every [C] heart
But there's [Am] hope under Bethlehem's [D] star
Oh, the [G] children all [B7] lay awake [Em] hoping
That [C] maybe they'll [G] hear Santa's [A7] sleigh [D7]
But they [G] know all too well 'Bout the [B7] lies grown ups [Em] tell
Well, at [Am] least they'll get [D] snow in L[G] A
So [G] Holy, [B7] Holy [Em] Chris[D] tmas [C] Day
[G] Holy, [B7] Holy [Em] come [D] what [C] may
And there's [G] six feet of snow in the [B7] San Fernando
Weighing [Em] heavy on [D] every [C] heart
But there's [Am] hope under Bethlehem's [D] star
Oh, the [G] church bells are [B7] ringing on [Em] Sunset
But the [C] preachers got [G] nothing to [A7] say [D7]
If it [G] turns out we [B7] all just weren't [Em] worth dying for
Well, at [Am] least we got [D] snow in L[G] A
