C                     F 
If we make it through December

Everything's gonna be alright, I know 
                         Dm 
It's the coldest time of winter 
      G                             C  Bb  F 
And I shiver when I see the falling snow

If we make it through December 
                     Fm                     C 
Got plans to be in a warmer town come summertime 
 G  Am

Maybe even California

If we make it through December, we'll be fine

Got laid off at the factory

And their timing is not the greatest in the world 
                       Dm 
Heaven knows I've been working hard 
       G                         C 
Wanted Christmas to be right for my girl

I don't mean to hate December

It's meant to be the happy time of year

And my little girl don't understand

Why we can't afford no Christmas gear
