I'm Walking Backwards For Christmas

• C

Intro: C G C G 

C 
 I'm walking backwards for Christmas 
   F 
Across the Irish sea 
C 
 I'm walking backwards for Christmas 
         G                C 
It's the finest thing for me 

       C            F 
I've tried walking sideways 
     C 
And walking to the front 
     D 
But people just laughed 
    G 
And    said it's a publicity stunt 

C                             A 
 I'm walking backwards for Christmas 
     F        G       C 
To prove that I love you 

   Cm 
An immigrant lad 
           G 
Loved an Irish Colleen 
      F        G     Cm 
From Dublin's Galway Bay 
    Cm 
He longed for her arms, 
          F 
But she spurned his charms, 
      G              Bb   C 
And sailed o'er the foam away 

                       Bb           Eb 
She left the lad by himself, on his own 
      Bb           Gm 
All alone, a-sorrowing 
      Cm                     G# 
And sadly he dreamed, or at least that's the 

way it seemed, buddy, 
          G 
That an angel choir for him, 
                    C 
an angel choir did sing. 

G#    Bb      F#             G#m 
 I'm walking backwards for Christmas 
  Bb       Dm     E 
Across the Irish Sea 
F             Gm              C 
 I'm walking backwards for Christmas, 
          Eb              C 
It's the finest thing for me. 

       C                   F 
And so I've tried walking sideways, 
     C 
And walking to the front 
     D 
But people just laughed 
    G 
And   said it's a publicity stunt. 
   C                            A 
So I'm walking backwards for Christmas 
     F        G       C 
To prove that I love you.
