I want a ukulele for Christmas
     G7                       C
a ukulele’s really all that I need
     Cm                         G
Tell Santa if he wants to put a smile on my face
         Dbdim                  D7
To put a ukulele underneath the Christmas tree


  G                  Gmaj7
I want a ukulele for Christmas
            G7                       C
I’ve got it written at the top of my list
          Cm
So if you wanna make me jolly
        G           E7
All you gotta do is give me just a
Dbdim     D7       G         G7
Little ukulele for Christmas


           C
I know the wise men brought gold and frankincense and myrrh
   G
To baby Jesus when he was born
      Dbdim
But I bet if he would’ve of made a Christmas list
  D       Dmaj7                D7          (nc)
a ukulele would have been gift number four


             G                  Gmaj7
That’s why I want a ukulele for Christmas
          G7                       C
And maybe I can write a song of my own
      Cm                        G          E7
Put a smile on the face of everyone when I play
       Dbdim         D7          G
The ukulele that I’m getting for Christmas, yeah!

I don’t need twelve drummers banging on drums
   G
Or eleven pipers piping for me
           Dbdim
I’m sure a partridge in a pear tree is a lot of fun
         D            Dmaj7             D7                    (nc)
But I’ll be a leaping lord if you would just get me…a ukulele…
                     G              Gmaj7
And I…I’ll ha…have a…   ukulele for Christmas
          G7                       C
And maybe I can write a song of my own
      Cm                        G          E7
Put a smile on the face of everyone when I play
       Dbdim         D7          Em
The ukulele that I’m getting for Christmas
    Gaug                  G            Em6  (nc)
For Christmas, oh, that’s all I really need


          C             Cm
So if you wanna make me jolly
        G           E7
All you gotta do is give me
       Dbdim     D7       Am7
Just a little ukulele for Christmas
Cm6        G    D7sus4 G D7sus4 G D7sus4 G
Christmas, yeah!
