[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]
G
Well, we'd all head to Waco, for the birth of our Lord
C
My folks and my brother in an 82 Ford
D
We'd pull in the driveway filled up with cars
C D
Old aunts and old uncles, Lord I see stars
G
And then we'd run to the kitchen, you know kids and their games
C
Play fetch with old Buster, call each other names
D
Aunt Betty'd be singing while supper was cooking
C D
We'd unwrap the gifts when no one was lookin'

[Chorus]
C G C G
Let's all gather round, Grandpa say the blessing
C G G D
Aunt Jane, she fell asleep, Mary Kay burned the dressing
C G C G
But we got all of our friends and family here
C D G
And I'm grateful for Christmas this year

[Verse 2]
G
This year we're in Houston, let's all get together
C
Man I almost saw snow, can you believe this weather?
D
Who's gonna be here, Uncle Frank can't make it
C D
Since Grandpa died, I don't know if Nana can take it
G
Well, this present's a sweater and the pie don't taste right
C
And Dad and the TV are starting to fight
D
I wish I had a drink or maybe a dozen
C D
Lord what I'd give for one good lookin' cousin

[Chorus]
C G C G
So let's all gather round, Dad you say the blessing
C G G D
Aunt Jane, she fell asleep, Mary Kay forgot the dressing
C G C G
But we got all of our friends and family here
C D G
And I'm grateful for Christmas this year
