 IF WE MAKE IT THROUGH DECEMBER (M. Haggard)
 performed by Merle Haggard (1973)
 |C |Dm |Dm |G |G |C |Bb F |C |
 
 
                         F6     F
 If we make it through December
                    Fm            C  C/B  Am
 Everything's gonna be alright I know
          Am/G             Dm   G
 It's the coldest time of winter
         Dm           G               C   Bb F C
 And I shiver when I see the falling snow
                        F6     F
 If we make it through December
                              Fm               C   C/B  Am
 Got plans to be a in warmer town come summer time
       Am/G      Dm   G
 Maybe even California
        Dm                G               C   Bb F C
 If we make it through December we'll be fine
 
 
                           Dm    G
 Got laid off down at the factory
            Dm                G              C    C/B  Am
 And their timing's not the greatest in the world
         Am/G         Dm          G
 Heaven knows I been working hard
           Dm            G                 C   C7
 Wanted Christmas to be right for Daddy's girl
                         F
 I don't mean to hate December
                       Fm            C   C/B  Am
 It's meant to be the happy time of year
         Am/G              Dm        G
 And my little girl don't understand
      Dm            G                 C   Bb  F  C
 Why Daddy can't afford no Christmas here
 
 
                         F6     F
 If we make it through December
                    Fm            C  C/B  Am
 Everything's gonna be alright I know
          Am/G             Dm   G
 It's the coldest time of winter
         Dm           G               C   Bb F C
 And I shiver when I see the falling snow
                        F6      F
 If we make it through December
                              Fm               C   C/B  Am
 Got plans to be a in warmer town come summer time
       Am/G      Dm   G
 Maybe even California
        Dm                G               C   Bb F C
 If we make it through December we'll be fine
