verse 1 
Em            D                C 
The waves are pounding on the shore today 
Em        D              C 
The sun is shining on the sand 
Em            D               C 
And we’ve been swimming in the water 
Em        D           C 
We’ve been living off the land 
Em            D          C 
Yea, we’ve been breathing underwater 
Em       D            C 
With all those animals that can 
Em        D        C 
Hey, we are living underwater 
Em          D         C 
Yea, we are living off the land 

G         D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under 
Em        D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under 
G         D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under 
G         D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under

verse 2 
Em         D            C 
Some say that Jesus had a daughter 
Em         D               C 
But I don’t guess he ever met her 
Em          D             C 
And she had never met her father 
Em         D                   C 
No, I guess this world couldn’t let her 
Em         D            C 
No, this world needed a martyr 
Em            D        C 
And, hey, it’s hard to understand 
Em         D             C 
But if you need to make a martyr 
Em        D        C 
You got to take away the man 

G         D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under 
Em        D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under 
G         D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under 
G         D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under

verse 3 
Em          D              C 
One day my dove will be a dragon 
Em      D       C 
It’s so hard to understand 
Em           D           C 
All dragon wings and dragon fire 
Em           D           C 
Then dragon bones beneath the land 
Em      D       C 
     So tonight, when the clouds break 
Em         D              C 
With all the lightning and the thunder 
Em               D             C 
Hey, come find me ’neath the lights of the tiki bars, honey 
Em          D           C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under 

G         D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under 
Em        D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under 
G         D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under 
G         D              C 
Hey, it’s Christmas down under
