Date: Fri, 13 Mar 1998 13:58:45 -0600 From: Brian Davies Subject: CRD: "Christmas Wrapping" by the Waitresses Here's one of my favorite Christmas songs of any genre. I posted the chords last year, but since then, Joe was kind enough to send me a complete lyric transcription. I've spliced the lyrics and chords together, and here's the result. If you enjoy this, please drop me a line. It encourages me to do more. :) Christmas '97 note: Thanks to Paul Trotta for sending lyrics to the verses that aren't listed in the liner notes. I also finally found a copy of the song on an obscure New Wave Christmas compilation, so I've been able to make a number of improvements. The breaks are now in the right place, I've added the intro, and the transitions in the chorus are better. - Brian CHRISTMAS WRAPPING by The Waitresses Written by Chris Butler (c) 1981 Future Fossil Music, BMI Lyrics transcribed by Joe768@aol.com with an assist from Paul Trotta Guitar chords transcribed by Brian Davies Comments and corrections to davies@ils.nwu.edu More of my tablature is available at: http://www.ils.nwu.edu/~davies/ [A] [D] [E] [A] [D] [E] [E] [A] Strum Two Verses [A] "Bah, humbug!" No, that's too strong 'Cause it [A] is my favorite holiday But [D] all this year's been a busy blur Don't [C] think I have the [B] energy To [A] add to my already mad rush Just [A] 'cause it 'tis the season. The [D] perfect gift for me would be Com[C]pletions and con[B]nections left from [A] Last year, ski shop, En[A]counter, most interesting. [D] Had his number but never the time [C] Most of '81 passed a[B]long those lines. So [A] deck those halls, trim those trees [A] Raise up cups of Christmas cheer, [D] I just need to catch my breath, [E] Christmas by my[A]self this year. [A] [A] [E] [A] [A] [A] [E] [A] [A] Calendar picture, frozen landscape, [A] Chilled this room for twenty-four days, [D] Evergreens, sparkling snow [C] Get this winter over with! [B] Flashback to [A] springtime, saw him again, [A] Would've been good to go for lunch, [D] Couldn't agree when we were both free. We [C] tried, we said we'd [B] keep in touch. [A] Didn't, of course, 'til summertime, [A] Out to the beach to his boat could I join him? [D] No, this time it was me, [C] Sunburn in the [B] third degree. [A] Now the calendar's just one page And, of [A] course, I am excited. To[D]night's the night, I've set my mind Not to [E] do too much a[A]bout it.

[A] Hardly dashing through the snow [A] 'Cause I bundled up too tight. [D] Last minute, had to do A few [C] cards, a few [B] calls, Because it's [A] R. S. V. P. [A] No thanks, no party lights. It's [D] Christmas Eve, gonna relax, [C] Turned down all of [B] my invites. Last [A] fall I had a night to myself, [A] Same guy called, Halloween party, [D] Waited all night for him to show, [C] This time his car [B] wouldn't go. For[A]get it, it's cold, it's getting late, [A] Trudge on home to celebrate In a [D] quiet way, unwind [E] Doing Christmas [A] right this time.

So [A] on with the boots, back out in the snow To the [A] only all-night grocery, When [D] what to my wondering eyes should appear In the [C] line is that guy I've been [B] chasing all year! "I'm [A] spending this one alone," he said. "Need a [A] break; this year's been crazy." I [D] said, "Me too, but why are you? You mean [C] you forgot cran[B]berries too?" Then [A] suddenly we laughed and laughed Caught [A] on to what was happening That [D] Christmas magic's brought this tale To a [E] very happy [A] ending!
