             C            Dm
There’s been snow-covered Christmases
    Am            G
And ones just of rain
   C                Em
Of smoked hams and warm bread
    Am             G
And shiny toy trains
                   F           Em
And though they’ve always been different
          Dm            Am
They’ve all been the best
            D                                             G
Yet there’s one I remember more tenderly than all the rest… (synth line: G,E,F#-E-F#-E)

Verse 1

C5
It all began with Uncle Jack, he made a crack and wouldn’t take it back
C5
Dad was drinkin’; he got sore, there was a flash, an awful crash
   C5
It took the manger on the floor!

Chorus 1

G#                         Fm
Shouldn’t have given him a gun for Christmas
C                                       Csus4 C
Shouldn’t have given him a gun, gun, gun
G#                         Fm
Shouldn’t have given him a gun for Christmas
C5
Look what Daddy has done, done, done!

Verse 2

C5
He put two slugs in the neighbour’s door
C5
And kicked apart the manger scene
C5
The plastic Baby Jesus he blew to smithereens
C5
I can’t think of all the nine year olds who won’t be seein’ ten
C5
Or how he went-a caroling to the doors of now dead men! Ahhhhhhhhh!

Chorus 2

Look what Daddy has done, done, done!
G#                         Fm
Shouldn’t have given him a gun for Christmas

Shouldn’t have given him a gun for Christmas
C5
Look what Daddy has done, done, done!
