Em B
Christmas is about having a whole week off from school
Em B
Christmas is all family-time and cheer
Em B
It's strands made out of popcorn and a fire made out of Yule
Em B
And why there aren't candy canes all year
Em Am
But these days it's all different, because these days she's around
Em B
She's cute and small and everyone adores her
Em B
The true meaning of Christmas was to watch me open presents,
Am B Em
But Christmas ain't about me anymore
Em B
Christmas is about sitting still in church for days
Em B
Christmas is about never complaining
Em B
Two years ago my presents filled up Santa Claus' whole sleigh
Em B
But by last year my haul had started waning
Em Am
And this year I'll get only toys that match the ones she gets
Em B
Or slightly larger versions of the outfits she ignores
Em B
Because the true meaning of Christmas was to watch me open presents,
Am B Em
But Christmas ain't about me anymore
B E
I don't want to brag but I can walk way better than she can
B E
Look at me a second cause I know a bunch more words
A E B
I do cartwheels, I can spell and I've been working on the Macarena
B
Doesn't that impress you?
Em Am
Nothing makes a difference, because these days she's around
Em B
Despite her many faults they all adore her
Em B
The true meaning of Christmas was to watch me open presents
Am B Em
But Christmas ain't about me anymore
Am B Em
Christmas ain't about me anymore
Am B Em
Christmas ain't about me anymore
