Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire

Nat King Cole CHORDS USED IN THIS SONG

D Em F#m G Bm C Gm Am E A

[D] Chestnuts [Em] roasting on an [F#m] open [G] fire

[D] Jack Frost [Em] nipping [F#m] at your [Bm] nose ... [C]

[D] Yuletide [C] carols being [Bm] sung by a [F#m] choir,

And [Gm] folks dressed [C] up like Eski- [D] -mos.

(Everybody) [D] knows a [Em] turkey and some [F#m] mistle- [G] -toe

[D] Help to [Em] make the [F#m] season [Bm] bright ... [C]

[D] Tiny [C] tots with their [Bm] eyes all a- [F#m] -glow,

Will [Gm] find it hard to [C] sleep to- [D] -night.

They know that [Am] San...[D] -ta's on his [G] way;

He's loaded [Am] lots of toys and [D] goodies on his [G] sleigh.

And every [Gm] mother's [C] child is going to [F] spy,

To see if [E] reindeer really know how to [A] fly.

And [D] so I'm [Em] offering this [F#m] simple [G] phrase,

To [D] kids from [Em] one to [F#m] ninety-[Bm] -two ...[C]

[D] Although it's been [C] said many [Bm] times, many [F#m] ways,

[D] Merry Christmas [A] to [D] you
