      The Christmas Song
Nat King Cole  
Capo III 
***************************************************************************
I found some of the other Tabs for this song to difficult for me to play
So this is a modified version.   I think it sounds pretty close 
***************************************************************************

A          Bm7           C#m  Dmaj7       (Bm7)
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

A           Em7  / A7     Dmaj7             (G7)
Jack Frost nipping at your nose 
  
A         G7               A    Ebm7     (D7)
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir

     C#m          Dm7 G7  Cmaj7   Bm7      Dm        
And folks dressed up like Eskimos...... everybody

  A     Bm7        C#m    Dmaj7     (Bm7)       
knows a turkey and some mistletoe

A       Em7  /   A7    Dmaj7        (G7)
Help to make the season bright

A     G7             A      (Ebm7 / D7)
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow

  C#m        Cmaj   Bm7   Dm          A
Will find it hard to sleep to....     night

               Em7     A7     Dmaj7
They know that Santa's on his way

                   Em7        A7             Dmaj7
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh

  Dm7               G7           Cmaj7
And every mother's child is gonna spy

          B7                          E7
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

A      Bm7                C#m    Dmaj7    (Bm7)
And so I'm offering this simple phrase

A            Em7 /  A7    Dmaj7        (G7)
To kids from one to ninety-two 
  
A         G7                  A        (Ebm7 / D7)
Although it's been said many times, many ways

 C#m / Cmaj7 /     Bm7       E7 / A  
 Merry Christmas........... to.. you           {on ( A ) strum slowly to fade}
