[Verse 1]
C                         G
  Oh, my billfold doesn't have a prayer
                           C
There's Christmas catalogs everywhere
                         G
She keeps looking at the jewelry section
                        C
Cutting pictures out of her selections
                          F
I said we need to hold it down this year
                         C
And in her eye she got a big ol' tear
F                       C
  She wants a Christmas rock
            G                    C
But Santa's pockets ain't got no roll

[Chorus]
                  F
She don't want no pots and pans
                       C
Just something shinin' on her hand
                     G
With an emerald or a diamond on it
                         C
I had a budget but she's gone and blown it
                          F
Down to the jewelry store here I go
                   C
Hear the clerk say ho ho ho
F                       C
  She wants a Christmas rock
    F       G                    C    C
But Santa's pockets ain't got no roll

[Verse 2]
C                   G
  She don't want anything from Sears
            C
No tools or garden shears
                          G
There's something special on her mind
                   C
And I can't even afford the shine
                           F
I wish she'd settled for a long nightshirt
                    C
No I've got to give till it hurts
F                       C
  She wants a Christmas rock
            G                    C
But Santa's pockets ain't got no roll

[Chorus]
C                   F
  She don't want no pots and pans
                       C
Just something shinin' on her hand
                     G
With an emerald or a diamond on it
                         C
I had a budget but she's gone and blown it
                          F
Down to the jewelry store here I go
                   C
Hear the clerk say ho ho ho
F                       C
  She wants a Christmas rock
    F       G                    C
But Santa's pockets ain't got no roll

[Outro]
F                           C
Yeah, she wants a Christmas rock
                G                    C    C    C    C
But ol' Santa's pockets ain't got no roll
