Song Title: All I Really Want
Intro:
D Dmaj7 G D Dmaj7 G
Verse One:
D D/F# G/B D
Well, I don't know if you remember me or not
G D/F# Em
I'm one of the kids they brought in from the home
D D/F# G/B D
I was the red-haired boy in an old green flannel shirt
G D/F# Bm
You may not have seen me, I was standing off alone
C2 D G
I didn't come and talk to you 'cause that's never worked before
C2 D G
And you'll probably never see this letter anyway
C2 D G D/F#
But just in case there's something you can do to help me out
Em
I'll ask you one more time
Chorus:
Bm A G D Asus
All I really want for Christmas is someone to tuck me in
Bm A G D Asus
A shoulder to cry on if I lose, shoulders to ride on if I win
Bm A G D Asus
There's so much I could ask for but there's just one thing I need
A G D Dmaj7 G D Dmaj7 G
All I really want for Christmas is a family
Verse Two:
Well, I guess I should go ahead and tell you now
If it's really true about that list you have
Somehow I always seem to end up in a fight
But I'm really trying hard not to be bad
Well maybe if I had a brother or a dad to wrestle with
Or maybe they could teach me how to get along
And from everything I've heard, it sounds like the greatest gift on earth
Would be a mom
Chorus Two:
All I really want for Christmas is someone to tuck me in
A shoulder to cry on if I lose, shoulders to ride on if I win
There's so much I could ask for but there's just one thing I need
A G A G
All I really want for Christmas is someone who'll be here
A Bm A Bm
To sing me Happy Birthday for the next one hundred years
A G
And it's okay if they're not perfect
D/F# Em G
Well, even if they're a little broken, that's all right, 'cause so am I
Verse Three:
D D/F# G/B D
Well, I guess I should go, it's almost time for bed
G D/F# Em
And maybe next time I write you, I'll be at home
Chorus Three:
'Cause all I really want for Christmas is someone to tuck me in
Tell me I'll never be alone, someone whose love will never end
Of all that I could ask for, well, there's just one thing I need
A G A G
All I really want for Christmas
A G A G
All I really want for Christmas
D Dmaj7 G D Dmaj7 G
Is a family
D Dmaj7 G
Just a family
D Dmaj7 G
That's all I really need
