Dwight Yoakam - Santa Can't Stay guitar chord

SANTA CAN'T STAY (Dwight Yoakam)

performed by Dwight Yoakam on COME ON CHRISTMAS (1997)

A

Cold tears fall from his eyes

E

As he turns into the night and walks away

Lucille runs outside

A

Just to see if there might be a sleigh

Little Bobby stares down

D

At the plate where cookies still lay

A

And tries to understand

E A

Why momma said Santa can't stay

D E A

Momma said Santa can't stay

D E A

Said she told him that twice yesterday

D E

Then a car just like Dad's

A F#m

Pulled out and drove away

D E

After momma said Santa couldn't stay

E

Santa can't stay

|A |A |E |E |B |E |E |

A

They both heard him coming

E

Saw Mom run down the hall and holler wait

Doug you're drunk don't come inside

A

I'm not joking I've had all this I can take

He threw a present really hard

D

That almost hit Mom's new boyfriend Ray

And yelled ho-ho lucky for you she's here

E A

And said that Santa can't stay

D E A

Momma said Santa can't stay

D E A

Said she told him that twice yesterday

D E

Then a car just like Dad's

A F#m

Pulled out and drove away

D E

After momma said Santa couldn't stay

D E A

Momma said Santa can't stay

D E A

Said she warned him about it twice yesterday

D E

Then a car just like Dad's

A F#m

Pulled out and drove away

D E

After momma said Santa couldn't stay

D E A

Hey momma said Santa can't stay

D E A

Said he might just have to beat the crap out of Ray

D E

Then a car just like Dad's

A F#m

Peeled out and drove away man

D E

After momma yelled Santa couldn't stay

D E A

Momma said Santa can't stay
