Susi: Bb major
Verse 1
C
G
C
D
C
T'was the night before
G
Christmas, when all through the house
C
Not a creature was stirring,
G
not even a mouse
D
G
C
The stockings were hung by the
Am
chimney with care
C
Em
In hopes that St. Nich
olas soon would be there
C
The children were nestled all
G
snug in their beds
C
G
While visions of sugar- plums danced
C
in their heads
And mamma in her 'kerchief,
Am
C
and I in my cap
Had just settled our brains for a
long winter's nap
When out on the lawn there arose such
a clatter
That I sprang from the bed to see what
G
Em
was the matter
C
Away to the window I flew
like a flash
Tore open the shutters and
D
threw up the sash
G
C
The moon on the breast
of the new- fallen snow
G
Gave a lustre of midday
to objects below
C
When, what to my won
dering eyes should appear
G
C
But a miniature sleigh,
G
C
and eight tiny reindeer
With a little old driver, so
G
lively and quick
F
C
I knew in a moment it must be
G
C
St. Nick
More rapid than eagles his coursers
F
they came
G
And he whistled, and shouted,
F
and called them by name
C
"Now Dasher! now, Dancer!
now, Prancer and Vixen!
G
C
On, Comet! on, Cupid! on, Donder
and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top
of the wall!
Now dash away! dash away!
G
C
dash away all!"
G
C
As dry leaves that before the wild
hurricane fly
When they meet with an obstacle,
Am
mount to the sky
C
D
So up to the house- top the coursers
they flew
C
With the sleigh full of toys,
D
C
and St. Nicholas too
And then, in a twinkling,
G
I heard on the roof
F
The prancing and pawing
C
G
of each little hoof
C
As I drew in my head, and was
G
turning around
C
Down the chimney St.
F
D
Nicholas came with a bound
G
C
He was dressed all in fur, from
G
his head to his foot
C
And his clothes were all tarnished
with ashes and soot
A bundle of toys he had
G
flung on his back
C
And he looked like a peddler just
D
opening his pack
G
His eyes - - how they twinkled!
F
his dimples how merry!
C
His cheeks were like roses,
his nose like a cherry!
G
His droll little mouth was drawn
C
up like a bow
And the beard of his chin
G
was as white as the snow
C
The stump of a pipe he held tight
G
in his teeth
C
And the smoke it encircled
G
C
his head like a wreath
G
Am
He had a broad face and a
C
little round belly
That shook,
G
when he laughed like a bowlful of jelly
C
He was chubby and plump,
G
Am
a right jolly old elf
C
And I laughed when I saw
G
him, in spite of myself
C
G
A wink of his eye and a twist
Em
of his head
C
Soon gave me to know I had
D
nothing to dread
C
He spoke not a word, but went straight
to his work
And filled all the
stockings; then turned with a jerk
G
And laying his finger
C
aside of his nose
G
C
Am
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose
D
G
He sprang to his sleigh,
to his team gave a whistle
C
And away they all flew
like the down of a thistle
G
C
But I heard him exclaim, 'ere
G
he drove out of sight
C
"Merry Christmas to all,
D
Am
D
G
and to all a good- night."
