Twas A DYLAN NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS With apologies to Bob Dylan & Clement Clarke Moore Monday, December 24, 2007 by Wade Farlowe (Capo 2nd Fret) GEmC G 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Am C D Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; G Em C G The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, Am D In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; D7 Gmaj7 D Then you'd better start sleeping or he'll pass by your home G C DG For Christmas Times a comin' GEmC G The children were nestled all snug in their beds, AmC D While visions of video games danced in their heads; G Em CG And mamma in her pj's, cause I'm such a sap, AmD Had just settled down for a long winter's nap, D7 Gmaj7 D For the loser now will be later to win G C DG For Christmas Times a comin' GEmC G When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, AmC D I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. GEm C G Away to the window I flew like a flash, Am D Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash. D7 Gmaj7 D It soon shook my windows with a rattle in my room G C DG ...... Christmas Times a comin' G Em CG The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow Am C D Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below, G EmC G When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, AmD But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer, D7 Gmaj7 D Please rub my eyes if you could lend me your hand G C DG ...... Christmas Times a comin' G EmC G With a little old driver, so lively and quick, Am C D I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick. GEm CG More rapid than eagles his coursers they came, Am D And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name; D7 Gmaj7 D I must be dreamin', I can't believe my ears G C DG For Christmas Times a comin' G EmC G "Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen! Am C D On, Comet! on Cupid! on, Donder and Blitzen! GEmC G To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall! Am D Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!" D7 Gmaj7 D So, you'd better go to bed, better get there fast G C DG For Christmas Times a comin' G EmC G As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, Am CD When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky, G EmC G So up to the house-top the coursers they flew, Am D With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too. D7 Gmaj7 D So, I'd better stop creepin' or old Santa won't stop by G C DG ...... Christmas Times a comin' G Em C G And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof Am C D The prancing and pawing of each little hoof. G Em C G As I drew in my hand, and was turning around, Am D Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound. D7 Gmaj7 D Now I'd better start hidin' and not make any sound G C DG ...... Christmas Times a comin' G Em C G He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot, Am C D And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot; G Em C G A bundle of toys he had flung on his back, Am D And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack. D7 Gmaj7 D He knows when we're sleepin' and knows when we're awake G C DG For Christmas Times a comin' G Em C G His eyes -- how they twinkled! his dimples how merry! Am C D His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry! G Em C G His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, Am D And the beard of his ch
