They [Am]say we're getting [D]snow in L[G]A
Oh, they're [G]hanging the ti[B7]nsel in [Em]Times Square
And the [C]traders down [G]on Saint Mark's [A7]Place [D7]
No one [G]answers their [B7]door for caro[Em]lers in New York
But hey, [Am]we're getting [D]snow in L[G]A
So [G]Holy, [B7]Holy [Em]Christmas [C]Day
[G]Holy, [B7]Holy [Em]come what [C]may
And there's [G]six feet ofsnow in the [B7]San Fernando
Weighing [Em]heavy on [D]every [C]heart
But there's [Am]hope under Bethlehem's [D]star
Oh, the [G]children all [B7]lay awake [Em]hoping
That [C]maybe they'll [G]hear Santa's [A7]sleigh [D7]
But they [G]know all too well 'Bout the [B7]lies grown ups [Em]tell
Well, at [Am]least they'll get [D]snow in L[G]A
So [G]Holy, [B7]Holy [Em]Chris[D]tmas [C]Day
[G]Holy, [B7]Holy [Em]come [D]what [C]may
And there's [G]six feet of snow in the [B7]San Fernando
Weighing [Em]heavy on [D]every [C]heart
But there's [Am]hope under Bethlehem's [D]star
Oh, the [G]church bells are [B7]ringing on [Em]Sunset
But the [C]preachers got [G]nothing to [A7]say [D7]
If it [G]turns out we [B7]all just weren't [Em]worth dying for
Well, at [Am]least we got [D]snow in L[G]A
