[Intro]
 
Deck the halls with boughs of holly fa la la la la la la la la
 
'Tis the season to be jolly fa la la la la la la la la
 
G Em D C D  X2
 
[Verse 1: Mark Hoppus]
G                               Em
Outside the carolers start to sing
                                C
I can't describe the joy they bring
                                   D
'Cause joy is something they don't bring me
 G                     Em
My girlfriend is by my side
                                     C
From the roof are hanging sickles of ice
                           D
Their whiny voices get irritating
         C             G
It's Christmas time again
 
 
[Verse 2: Mark Hoppus]
 G                                  Em
So I stand with a dead smile on my face
                                       C
Wondering how much of my time they'll waste
                              D
Oh god, I hate these Satan's helpers
G                             Em
And then I guess I must've snapped
                             C
Because I grabbed a baseball bat
                              D
And made them all run for shelter
 
 
[Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
                 G    D
It's Christmas time again
      Em                     C                G         D
It's time to be nice to the people you can't stand all year
     Em               C                   G
I'm growing tired of all this Christmas cheer
      D
You people scare me
Em      C                  G
Please stay away from my home
   D                        Em
If you don't wanna get beat down
     C                      D
Just leave the presents and then leave me alone
 
 
[Verse 3: Mark Hoppus]
         G                                       Em
Well I guess it's not cool to freak on Christmas Eve
                                   C
'Cause the cops came and arrested me
                      D
They had an unfair advantage
 G                                     Em
And even though the jail didn't have a tree
                         C
Christmas came a night early
                                    D
'Cause a guy named Bubba unwrapped my package (Hot damn!)
 
 
 
[Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
 
It's Christmas time again
      Em                     C                G         D
It's time to be nice to the people you can't stand all year
     Em               C                   G
I'm growing tired of all this Christmas cheer
      D
You people scare me
Em      C                  G
Please stay away from my home
   D                        Em
If you don't wanna get beat down
     C                      D
Just leave the presents and then leave me alone
