Intro: F - A7 - Dm - Bb (x4)
Transition: C (x2)
Verse:
F C
I’m an elf, on a shelf.
Dm A7 Bb F C
My name is Melvin Ebenezer Aloysius Rosenberg the Fourth.
F C
I love my job, I love my boss.
Dm A7
That’s right. I work for Santa Claus.
Bb F C
And I’m his eyes and ears while he’s up north.
Pre-Chorus:
Dm Dm7
From November to December,
C //Mute
We help Santa Claus remember,
Chorus:
F C
Who’s been naughty, who’s been nice,
Dm A7
Who’s been playing too much Minecraft,
Bb F C
On their iPads when they’re ‘sposed to be asleep.
F C
Who’s been naughty, who’s been nice,
Dm A7
Who’s been eating lots of junk food,
Bb F C
And not brushing like they’re ‘sposed to after you eat.
Verse:
F C
I’m taking notes, I’m keeping tabs,
Dm A7
I saw Justin throwing slabs,
Bb F C
Of bologna against the ceiling to make ‘em stick.
F C
I saw 5 year old Charlotte,
Dm A7
Try to make a chocolate omelette,
Bb F C
Out of peanut butter eggs and Nestle Quik.
Pre-Chorus:
Dm Dm7
From November to December,
C //Mute
We help Santa Claus remember,
Chorus:
F C
Who’s been naughty, who’s been nice,
Dm A7
Who’s on top of all their studies,
Bb F C
And not cheating off their buddies during class.
F C
Who’s obeying mama’s wishes,
Dm A7
And finally helping with the dishes,
Bb F C
Feed the fishes, rake the leaves, and mow the grass.
Bridge:
Bb Bbm
Oh, Santa wants you to know,
F A7
He's become lactose intolerant,
Dm
So don’t leave out that two percent.
Bb Bbm
And no more cookies, no more fudge.
F
Mrs. Claus won’t budge.
A7 Dm - Bb
Santa’s going on a diet.
C
He can’t deny it.
Verse:
F C
I’m an elf, on a shelf,
Dm A7
and I love to watch the families,
Bb F
Deck the halls so merrily,
C
And decorate the Christmas tree.
F C
I was sent by the man in red,
Dm A7
To spread the joy of christmas cheer,
Bb F C
Until we do it all again next year.
Instrumental Break to end: F - C - Dm - A7 - Bb - F - C (x2)
The actual song fades, but I just play that refrain twice, add some scatting, and end it on a nice F chord.
Thanks for checking out my first tab ever! I hope you enjoy it.
