Santa On The Roof Top Feat Rosie Lyrics by Trisha Yearwood
Album: A Rosie Christmas 1999

Slow Strum G Em C 
Speed up   D

GI (320003@1)was walking home on Christmas eve
EmThe (022000@1)whole neighborhood was fast asleep
CThe (x32010@1)snow was falling, coming down hard
DThe (xx0232@1)place looked like a picture post card.
GAnd (320003@1)when my house came into view
EmI (022000@1)noticed something up on the roof
CYou (x32010@1)can't imagine my surprise
DWhen (xx0232@1)I looked up and realized.

GIt (320003@1)was Santa on the rooftop
                           EmAnd (022000@1)our house was Santa's first roof stop
                           CThe (x32010@1)reindeer were quiet as a mouse
Didn't make a sound
DSanta (xx0232@1)got ready to make his way down
            GHe (320003@1)had one foot in the chimney
                         EmDestination (022000@1)our brand new Christmas tree
CI (x32010@1)knew everyone was gonna be shocked
DWhen (xx0232@1)I told them I saw Santa on the rooftop.

GI (320003@1)tried to get home right away
EmBut (022000@1)I was just a little too late
CThe (x32010@1)gifts were laid out under the tree
DBut (xx0232@1)no sign of Mister SC.
GI (320003@1)ran over to the fireplace
EmBut (022000@1)there was nothing but an empty space
CGot (x32010@1)everybody up out of bed
DTheir (xx0232@1)eyes opened wide when I said.

GIt (320003@1)was Santa on the rooftop

DWhen (xx0232@1)I told them I saw Santa on the rooftop.

GSome (320003@1)people think the man's a myth
EmI (022000@1)had my doubts, I admit
CThey'll (x32010@1)laugh and criticize
DWhen (xx0232@1)somebody says with that look in their eyes.
