[Verse 1]
C G
He was just a little tree, kinda scrawny, kinda thin,
Am Em
and in that great big house, didn’t seem to fit in.
F A7
On Christmas Eve he heard the mistress of that big ole house say,
D7 Am G
“That little tree is ugly. Get a new one right away!”

[Chorus]
C G
Nobody wants me, and tomorrow’s Christmas Day.
Am Em
Nobody needs me for the Christmas holiday.
F A7
Nobody loves me, and I have no place to stay.
D7 Am G C
Nobody wants me. I’m going to run away!

[Verse 2]
C G
The cold wind whistled and it howled as he trudged through the snow
Am Em
with ornaments a-janglin’ and icicles aglow
F A7
Passed factories and houses and the ole saw mill
D7 Am G
when suddenly he saw the little cabin on the hill.

[Chorus]
C G
Nobody wants me, and tomorrow’s Christmas Day.
Am Em
Nobody needs me for the Christmas holiday.
F A7
Nobody loves me, and I have no place to stay.
D7 Am G C
Nobody wants me. I’m going to run away!

[Verse 3]
C G
Through the window he could see little Tommy’s curly head,
Am Em
and he heard little Tommy prayin’ before he climbed in bed,
F A7
“We don’t expect presents, God, but maybe you could see
D7 Am G
some way of getting us just a little Christmas tree.”

[Bridge]
C G
Am Em
F A7
D7 Am G C

[Verse 4]
C G
The little gift-laden tree crept inside late that night,
Am Em
and next morning, he was greeted with squeals of delight.
F A7
“It’s a miracle!” they shouted, and he knew it was true
D7 Am G
for he had found a home and a loving family, too.

[Chorus]
C G
Somebody wants me, and today is Christmas Day.
Am Em
Somebody needs me for a happy holiday.
F A7
Somebody loves me, and I have a place to stay.
D7 Am G C
Somebody loves me and I’ll never run away!
