I Hate Your Family

Intro:
C    Csus

C                    G                    E7                             F
I'm lighting a candle, as I'm looking through my window

                     C                                          G                          F
To the town square, the snow covered streets are lonely and bare,

            C
yeah

C                                 E7                                     F
The town Christmas tree, winks mockingly at me,

               Fmin                         G                        Dmin      G
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you.


F                     G                                Amin G   F
I wrapped my last gift and put the cellotape  away,


Dmin              G                        Amin   Amin/G   Amin    Amin  Amin/G
Checked the answering machine


F                G                 Amin G  F
And in the distance, a choir      sings

   G
About the joy that Christmas brings

C            G                        F
And it's making me feel blue,

              C                                G                       F
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you,

         C                                  E7                       Amin G      F
But it breaks my heart that that's the place I just    can't be,

G                                    F  F/E  F  F/E  F  F/E  F  F/E  F  F/E  F  F/E  F  F/E  G  C
Cause I hate your family.

C             G
The day I met you,

            E7                         F
I knew you could get me through.

                       C                           G                             F           C
When we're alone, my world is complete, you're all that I need.

C                                 G
But when your family call,

        E7                    F
they shit me up the wall,

                 F                                G                          C
Spending time with them just makes my brain bleed.

              G                           F
And it's making me feel blue,

               C                                G                        F
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you,

           C                         E7                Amin G     F
But I'd rather string my nuts up to a Christmas tree,

G
Cause I hate your family.

Dmin                G
The night I first met them,

       Amin G    F
The dog was drunk,

                Dmin  G                                   Amin  Amin/G  Amin  Amin  Amin/G
And your father threatened me with a knife.

F                   G
Your sister showed me

        Amin       G  F
Her collection of eels,

        G                                                               C    G
And what she did then will stay with me for life.

              F                           F F/G F F/G F F/G G
And it's making me spu,

               C                               G                        F
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you,

            C                    E7                  Amin G F
But I'd rather drink a tumbler full of walrus  wee,

G
Cause I hate your family.

C              G                                      F
With your brother doing dick tricks at the table,

C            G                                                       F
I can't believe your mum asked me to play spin the bottle.

               C                  E7                         Amin G D7
Yeah I'd rather be enclosed in a box of killer      bees,

              C                 E7                       Amin G D7
Yeah I'd rather be attacked by giant chimpazees,

               C                    E7                          Amin G F    Fmin
Yeah I'd rather wear a suit designed by Jenny     Keye

        C       G  F
Your mum is dumb

        C     G         F
And your dad is mad

G                                 C        F  F/G  F  F/G  F  F/G  G
And that's why I'm so sad
