I tried to open several links and threads that should have had these lyrics, but none of them worked (couldn't access them), so here are the lyrics and chords.Genie
Jolly Old St. Nicholas ca. 1898
Jolly old St. Nicholas, lean your ear this way. C G C C7
Don't you tell a single soul what I'm going to say! F C G G7
Christmas eve is coming soon; C G
Now, you dear old man, C C7
Whisper what you'll bring to me. F C
Tell me, if you can. G CWhen the clock is striking twelve,
When I'm fast asleep,
Down the chimney broad & black
With your pack you'll creep.
All the stockings you will find hanging in a row.
Mine will be the shortest one--
You'll be sure to know.Johnny wants a pair of skates, Susie wants a sled.
Jenny wants a picture book--orange, blue and red.
As for me, dear Santa Claus, you must know the rest.
Choose for me, dear Santa Claus what you think is best.
