Intro: C Am D7 G C Am D7 GC Barefoot barefoot Santa Claus D7 G7 C Jumping on the roofs without his boots Barefoot barefoot Santa Claus Dm7 G C Happy in his big red suitVerse 1:
F G C The reindeer couldn't believe their eyes Dm7 G C The stars were blinking too Dm7 G C Am For zooming through the Christmas skies D7 G Was Santa without his shoesPre-Chorus
F G C Now Santa had to beat the mornin' sun Dm7 G7 C With a hey and a holler and a hoot Dm7 G C G But he needed some help getting his job done D7 G And he had to give away his bootsC Oh, Barefoot barefoot Santa Claus D7 G7 C Jumping on the roofs without his boots Barefoot barefoot Santa Claus Dm7 G C Happy in his big red suitVerse 2:
F G C Now a hint of dawn was in the sky Dm7 G7 C With many a mile to go Dm7 G C Am When Tommy the newsboy happened by D7 G My story I'll bet you knowPre-Chorus
F G C Santa called and Tom didn't even pause Dm7 G7 C With a hey and a holler and a hoot Dm7 G C Am And he worked so hard helping Santa Claus D7 G That he wore out his on bootsC Oh, Barefoot barefoot Santa Claus D7 G7 C Jumping on the roofs without his boots Barefoot barefoot Santa Claus Dm7 G C Happy in his big red suitPre-Chorus F G C The reindeer couldn't believe their eyes Dm7 G7 C The stars were blinking too Dm7 G C Am Wiggling his toes and a-heading for home D7 G Was Santa without his shoesVerse 3:
F G C The sun came up but the job was done Dm7 G7 C Because young Tommy cared Dm7 G C Am His thank you was a special one D7 G Santa gave him his boots to wearOutro: Dm7 G G Am Happy in his big red suit Dm7 G C C Happy in his big red suitC Oh, Barefoot barefoot Santa Claus D G7 C Jumping on the roofs without his boots Barefoot barefoot Santa Claus Dm7 G C Am Happy in his big red suit
