[D] [B7] [G] [A7] [D] [B7] [G]
Santa Baby, just slip a sable under the tree for me;
[A7] [A7sus4] [D] [B7]
Been an awful good girl, Santa Baby,
[G] [G/F#] [A7] [D] [Bm7] [Bm7-5] [A7]
So hurry down the chimney tonight
[D] [B7] [G] [A7] [D] [B7] [G]
Santa baby, a '54 convertible too -- light blue.
[A7] [A7sus4] [D] [B7]
I'll wait up for you, dear Santa baby,
[G] [G/F#] [A7] [D] [Bm7] [G] [Gdim] [D]
So hurry down the chimney tonight
Bridge:
[F#7]
Think of all the fun I've missed,
[B7]
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed;
[E7]
Next year I could be just as good
[A7] [Cdim] [E7] [A7]
If you'll check off my Christmas list.
[D] [B7] [G] [A7] [D] [B7] [G]
Santa Baby, I want a yacht and really that's not a lot
[A7] [A7sus4] [D] [B7]
Been an angel all year, Santa Baby,
[G] [G/F#] [A7] [D] [Bm7] [G] [Gdim] [D]
So hurry down the chimney tonight
[D] [B7] [G] [A7] [D] [B7] [G]
Santa honey, one little thing I really need -- the deed
[A7] [A7sus4] [D] [B7]
To a platinum mine, Santa Baby,
[G] [G/F#] [A7] [D] [Bm7] [Bm7-5] [A7]
So hurry down the chimney tonight.
[D] [B7] [G] [A7] [D] [B7] [G]
Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex and checks
[A7] [A7sus4] [D] [B7]
Sign your 'x' on the line, Santa cutie,
[G] [G/F#] [A7] [D] [Bm7] [G] - [Gdim] [D]
So hurry down the chimney tonight
Bridge 2:
[F#7]
Come and trim my Christmas tree
[B7]
With some decorations bought at Tif-fa-ny
[E7]
I really do believe in you --
[A7] [Cdim] [E7] [A7]
Let's see if you believe in me
[D] [B7] [G] [A7] [D] [B7] [G]
Santa Baby, forgot to mention one little thing -- a ring
[A7] [A7sus4] [D] [B7]
I don't mean on the phone, Santa Baby,
[G] [G/F#] [A7] [D] [Bm7] [G] - [Gdim] [D]
So hurry down the chimney tonight.
Coda:
[G] [G/F#] [A7] [D] [Bm7] [G]
Hurry down the chimney tonight,
[A7] [D6]
Hurry...tonight.
