Merry Christmas From the Family
guitar chords lyrics
G C G C
Mom got drunk and Dad got drunk at our Christmas party
G Em C D
We were drinking champagne punch and homemade eggnog
G C
Little sister brought her new boyfriend
G C
He was a Mexican
G Em C
We didn't know what to think of him until he sang
D G
Feliz Navidad, Feliz Navidad
C
Brother Ken brought his kids with him
G C
The three from his first wife Lynn
G Em C D
And the two identical twins from his second wife Mary Nell
G C
Of course he brought his new wife Kay
G C
Who talks all about AA
G Em C D
Chain smoking while the stereo plays Noel, Noel
G
The First Noel
D
Carve the Turkey
Turn the ball game on
C
Mix margaritas when the eggnog's gone
D
Send somebody to the Quickpak Store
C
We need some ice and an extension chord
D
A can of bean dip and some Diet Rites
C
A box of Tampons, some Marlboro Lights
G Em
Halelluja everybody say cheese
C D G
Merry Christmas from the family
C
Fran and Rita drove from Harlingen
G C
I can't remember how I'm kin to them
G Em
But when they tried to plug their motor home in
C D
They blew our Christmas lights
G C
Cousin David knew just what went wrong
G C
So we all waited out on our front lawn
G Em
He threw a breaker and the lights came on
C D G C G
And we sang Silent Night, oh Silent Night, oh Holy Night
D
Carve the turkey turn the ball game on
C
Make Bloody Marys
Cause We All Want One!
D
Send somebody to the Stop 'N Go
C
We need some celery and a can of fake snow
D
A bag of lemons and some Diet Sprites
C
A box of Tampons, some Salem Lights
G Em
Halelluja, everybody say cheese
C D G
Merry Christmas from the Family
C G
Feliz Navidad!
