These are the chords for Jolliest Fat Man by Laverne And Shirley on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard
[Intro]
D A D x2
[Verse]
D A
It was Christmas Eve night
D Am7
at the poorhouse,
G A D A
And all of the paupers were there
D A D
I stepped in because it was snowing,
Bm A D
And snow always screws up my hair
Bm
By the pot-bellied stove,
F#m
sat a pot-bellied man,
G A
He spoke with some lumps
D F#7
in his throat
Bm
His story was sad,
F#m
And his diction was bad,
G A D
And here is a song that he wrote:
[Verse]
D A D Am7
I once was the jolliest fat-man
G A D A
With roses in all of my cheeks.
D A D
I\'d load up my sled every Christmas
Bm A D
and go on a drunk for two weeks
Bm
My friends said they
F#m
saw me on rooftops
G
and sliding down
A D F#7
chimneys at dawn
Bm
With my reindeer in hand
F#m
I would glide \'cross the land
G A D
and wake up on somebody\'s lawn.

[Verse]
D A
One morning my wife
D Am7
left this message
G
“Each Christmas
A D
I\'ve spent by myself.
D
I\'m sick of
A D
your stupid traditions
Bm A
so I\'ve run off to Spain
D
with a elf.”
Bm
Just then, the old
F#m
man started dyin\'
G
He screamed,
A D F#7
\"May the Lord take my soul\"
Bm
We went through his wallet
F#m
to see who he was
G A
His address read simply,
D
\"North Pole\"
[Verse]
D A
So, the next time you go
D Am7
by the poorhouse,
G A D
If by the poorhouse you go,
Bm
Just take off your hat,
F#m
To a dead guy who\'s fat,
G A D
And whisper a silent... \"HO, HO\".
