NTRO: D G A7 D

D G

Christmas Day will not be very merry
A7 D
Explainin' to the children will be hard D G

Well it's Christmas Eve tonight and our beagle picked a fight A7 D
With some reindeer that were grazin' in our yard



I let the dog outside to do his business
I forget to hook his leash up to the peg

First he and Cupid came to blows, then he bit Rudolph on the nose
And when I got there he was eyin' Prancer's leg



CHORUS: D D/F# G-G/F# Em
Now I'm gettin' sued by Santa Claus A7 D A7

He's claimin' mental anguish in his case D D/F# G-G/F# Em
Yeah I'm gettin' sued by Santa Claus A7 D
And my kids won't even look me in the face



D G A7 D



I tried to throw myself on Santa's mercy

I begged him but I wasn't gettin' thru
I said it's all your fault you know, he said now how can that be so
I said because we got the stupid dog from you



CHORUS



SOLO



CHORUS D D/F# G-G/F# Em

Yeah I'm gettin' sued by Santa Claus A7 D G A7 D
Now I'm bunkin' with the beagle at his place


Couldn't we just settle out of court?
