Intro: G D G
G
It's that time of year when we all get together
D
And afterwards we wonder why
D
'Cause the later it gets, the drunker we are
G
Someone always ends up in a fight
G
Well you'd think that a family could try to get along
C
At least this one day a year
D
But the fact is we can't, we never will
G
So pass me one more Christmas beer
G C G
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em, get drunk and annoy 'em
D
I'm usually the one who tries to hold it together,
G
But someone smoked up all my Christmas cheer
G C G
We don't know any better, same thing, different year
D
G
God bless the family, can't wait 'til it's over, pass me one more Christmas beer

Scotty's got GB down in a head-lock, Mike just got decked in the hall
D
Over somethin' 'bout NASCAR and who had the fast car
G
And who put Junior into that wall
G
Well grandma's bitchin' about men in the kitchen
C
It's a good thing my grandpa can't hear
D
I've tried to stay sober, but this party ain't over
G
So pass me one more Christmas beer
