      I Want an Alien For Christmas
Fountains of Wayne
(C. Collingwood, A. Schlesinger)
Tabbed by Kevin Brosky


Verse 1:
A              
This year for Christmas
        E
There's something I'd really like
            F#m
So if you're up there somewhere Santa
             D
Please don't bring me another bike
        A
I don't need any ugly sweaters
           E
And I don't play much basketball
            F#m
But there's something kind of special
      B
That I want most of all


Chorus:
         A
I want an alien for Christmas
           E
Bring me an alien this year
          G
I want a little green guy, about three feet high
       D
With seventeen eyes, who knows how to fly
          A          E            A       D      A       E
I want an alien for Christmas this year


Verse 2:
(same chords from verse 1)
He can live in the bathtub
So don't worry about a thing
And I'll take him out for walks
When it gets nicer in the spring
I'll always keep him company
He'll never be alone
You can hang around the house all day
And watch the twilight zone

Chorus

Interlude:
A     E     G     D

Last Chorus:
         A
I want an alien for Christmas
          E
Bring me an alien this year
         G
I want a little green guy, about three feet high
       D
With seventeen eyes, who knows how to fly
         A         E             F#m         D
I want an alien for Christmas this year
          A         E              A     D     E   A
I want an alien for Christmas this year
