Intro 
G 

 
G 
The kids are sending letters 
       D 
To the top of the world 
    Em7 
And tearing paper rings 
             C 
To count the days 
         G 
Watching Frosty on the TV 
          D 
With that little boy and girl 
     Em7 
I'll try to fake some cheer 
                 C 
While this heart breaks 
                  G                             D 
'Cause he wants a new game, a 10-speed, and his very first guitar 
            Em7                         C 
She wants a frozen plastic castle and a swing set in the yard 



                G 
But Santa had a rough year 
                  D 
So there won't be much here 
      Em7                                  C 
Yeah, that's the kinda news that's hard to break 
           G 
Under that Charlie Brown tree 
            D 
It's mostly dust and dead pine leaves 
           Em7 
They can't sleep, they're so excited 
          C 
While I'm lying here wide awake 
                   G 
'Cause Santa had a rough year 



G                                       D 
He picked up every shift, swallowed his pride, called his old man 
          Em7                               C 
When it's quiet on the rooftop, yeah, those kids won't understand 
                      G 
'Cause they're on the nice list, yeah, he said so 
          D 
When they met him at the mall 
          Em7                                  C 
When they don't get what they want, how do you say it ain't their fault? 

 
            G 
Santa had a rough year 
                  D

           G

            D

          C

Dobro Solo 
G   D             Em7         C 
      Santa had a rough year 


          D 
Yeah, you can't wrap up the truth 
             Em7 
Or tie those hard times with a bow 
               C 
I hope they'll still believe in him 
C 
Even though 
            G 
Santa had a rough year
