Dropkick Murphys: The Season's Upon Us

Intro: C F G C, C F G C

    C        F             G            C
The season's upon us, it's that time of year
C          F               G         C
Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer
        C             F                 G             C
There's lights on the trees and there's wreaths to be hung
        C            F          G           C
There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung

        C                 F          G        C
There's bells and there's holly, the kids are gung-ho
     C            F            G           C
True love finds a kiss beneath fresh mistletoe
     C            F               G          C
Some families are messed up while others are fine
       F                    G                      C F G C C F G C
If you think yours is crazy... well you should see mine

   C           F           G          C
My sisters are wackjobs, I wish I had none
      C            F          G            C
Their husbands are losers and so are their sons
   C          F        G           C
My nephew's a horrible wise little twit
        C         F                 G           C
He once gave me a nice gift wrapped box full of shit

   C             F             G       C
He likes to pelt carolers with icy snowballs
            C            F             G             C
I'd like to take him out back and deck more than the halls
     C           F            G       C
With family like this I would have to confess
       C          F          G             C
I'd be better off lonely, distraught and depressed

My brother just brought home another big broad
    C           F             G             C
The eye rollin’ whispers come loud from the kitchen
    C              F               G         C
I'd come home more often if they'd only quit bitchin'

Dad on the other hand's a selfish old sod
       C       F             G         C
Drinks whiskey alone with my miserable dog
    C             F             G             C
Who won't run off fetch sure he couldn't care less
   C          F              G           C
He defiled my teddy bear and left me the mess
