Intro: Dm 

verse 1 
                             A7      Dm 
I woke this morn and there beside my bed 
                                     A7      Dm 
Lay two stockings, one was green and one was red 

Should I put them on my feet? 
              A7    Dm 
Or match them on my head? 


verse 2 
  G          C            G         D 
I think I'll wear my port starboard socks 
        G        C      G 
They'll bring me luck tonight 
              C      G    D 
The red one's on the left foot 
                           G 
And the green one's on the right 


verse 3 
          C            G         D 
I love to wear my port starboard socks 
     G        C      G 
They chase my blues away 
          C             G         D 
And when I wear my port starboard socks 
                     G 
It's Christmas every day 

A7 Stop and go, hot and cold D The ember and the envy G A7 Red and green, a Christmas scene D G The holly and the ivy
verse 4 C G D I think I'll weave port starboard socks G C G For Santa and his reindeer C G D I'll find a great big cardboard box G And fill it with good cheer Verse 5 C G D A streak of red and one of green G C G Like ribbons, wound and curled C G D We'll make a great big Christmas wreath G That goes around the whole world
A7 Stop and go, hot and cold D The ember and the envy G A7 Red and green, a Christmas scene D Dm The holly and the ivy
Verse 6 A7 Dm I woke this morn and there beside my bed A7 Dm Lay two stockings, one was green and one was red Should I put them on my feet? A7 Dm Or match them on my head?
