[Verse 1]
                  F       C
I broke my bat on Candy's head
                     G
Somebody snitched on me
C                  F        C
I hid a frog in my sister's bed
         G           C
Somebody snitched on me
Am                    D            F
I spilled some ink on Mommma's rug
              G
I made Ronnie eat a bug
Am                       F     C
  Bought some gum with a penny slug
         G           C
Somebody snitched on me

[Chorus]
C
I'm getting nothing for Christmas
                    G
Mommy and Daddy are mad
Am                      F     C
I'm getting nothing for Christmas
                    G           C
'Cause I ain't been nothing but bad

[Verse 2]
C               F         C
I put a tack on teacher's chair
                     G
Somebody snitched on me
C                F       C
I tied a knot in Sarah's hair
         G           C
Somebody snitched on me
Am               D
I did a dance on Grandma's plants
F                      G
  Climbed a tree and I tore my pants
Am                       F         C
I filled that sugar bowl up with ants
             G           C
And somebody snitched on me

[Chorus]
C
I'm getting nothing for Christmas
                    G
Mommy and Daddy are mad
Am                      F     C
I'm getting nothing for Christmas
                  G           C
'Cause I can't be nothing but bad

[Verse 3]
C                     F     C
I won't be seeing old Santa Claus
                     G
Somebody snitched on me
C                   F    C
He won't come visit me because
         G           C
Somebody snitched on me
Am               D
Next year I'll be  going straight
F                      G
  Next year I'll be good, just you wait
Am                   F         C
  I'd start now, but  it's too late
         G           C
Somebody snitched on me

[Chorus]
C
I'm getting nothing, no
                    G
Mommy and Daddy are mad
Am                      F     C
I'm getting nothing for Christmas
                     G           C
Because I ain't been nothing but bad

[Outro]
C
I'm getting nothing for Christmas
                    G
Mommy and Daddy are mad
Am                      F     C
I'm getting nothing for Christmas
                     G           C
Because I ain't been nothing but bad
                  G           C
'Cause I can't be nothing but bad
                     G           C
Because I ain't been nothing but bad
