Bb5                                     F5
If We Make It Through December ev'rything's gonna be alright I know;
             F5          G5                        C5              F5
It's the coldest time of winter and I shiver when I see the falling snow;
      F5                Bb5
If We Make It Through December,
                                   F5
Got plans to be a warmer town come summer time;
      F5       G5
Maybe even California,
C5    G5               C5               F5
If We Make It Through December, we'll be fine;
                           G5
Got laid off down at the fact'ry
C5        G5                 C5           F5
And their timing's not the greatest in the world;

Heaven knows I been working hard, wanted Christmas to be right for daddy's girl;
F5                     Bb5
I don't mean to hate December,
                                   F5
It's meant to be the happy time of year;
       F5                G5                              C5            F5
And my little girl don't understand why daddy can't afford no Christmas here;
