     G            Em
Well I believe in Santa Claus

And you ought to believe in him too
       G                            Em
'Cause it’s Christmas Eve and he’ll be here soon
         C         G       D
And it’s never too late to change your tune

[Verse 1]
        G                    D
Well he made his list and he checked it twice
D                                 G
All you bad boys and girls oughta take my advice
          C                          G
If you’re feeling like a Grinch or a hard lump of coal
        A                      D
You can always look up to that old North Pole

[Chorus]
       G            Em
'Cause I believe in Santa Claus
        C        G          D
And you ought to believe in him too
       G                            Em
'Cause it’s Christmas Eve and he’ll be here soon
         C         G       D
And it’s never too late to change your tune

[Verse 2]
        G                           D
Well he flies by the moon spreading joy and laughter
D                         G
While the yuletide swoons happily ever after
        C                          G
You can call it a cartoon; you can say that he ain’t real
       A                                D
But it fills me up with a spirit that I can’t conceal

[Chorus]
       G            Em
'Cause I believe in Santa Claus
        C        G          D
And you ought to believe in him too
       G                            Em
'Cause it’s Christmas Eve and he’ll be here soon
         C         G       D
And it’s never too late to change your tune
D
So change your tune

[Verse 3]
G                             D
   Well now if you don’t trust in the words that I sing
D                     G
And if you must insist that there’s no such thing
     C                            G
Just remember that a miracle is a choice that you can make
       A                    D
And be good to yourself for goodness sake

[Chorus]
     G            Em
Well I believe in Santa Claus
        C        G           D
And you ought to believe in him too
       G                            Em
'Cause it’s Christmas Eve and he’ll be here soon
         C         G           D
And it’s never too late to change your tune
   G            Em
Oh I believe in Santa Claus
        C        G           D
And you ought to believe in him too
   G            Em
