Holly Jolly Christmas sung by Burl Ives (1962)

   [G]      [C]      [G7]    [C]
1. Have a holly, jolly Christmas,

         [C]         [Edim].  [G]
It's the best time of the year.

[G7]      [Cdim].   [G7]          [Edim].
I don't know if there'll be snow,

    [G7]     [Fdim].  [C]      [G9]
But have a cup of cheer.

          [C]      [G7]    [C]
2. Have a holly, jolly Christmas,

         [C]        [Edim].    [G]
And when you walk down the street,

[G7]  [Cdim].    [G7]          [Edim].
Say hello to friends you know,

    [G7]   [Fdim].   [C]
And everyone you meet.
