What Do You Get a Wookiee for Christmas?

UPDATED, with mp3 goodness!

Tim suggested that we add this classic ditty to the Ukulelia Holiday Songbook. I've pasted the lyrics and chords in the comments section to save space. You'll want to change the font to something like courier so everything lines up correctly.

Enjoy! (Thanks, Tim!)

    From "Christmas in the Stars: The Star Wars Christmas Album" (1980)
    Words and music by Maury Yeston

    G D7 G6
    What can you get a Wookiee for Christmas
    A7sus A7
    when he already owns a comb?
    D7 Am7 D7
    What can you get in a hurry for a furry
    G G6 D7 G
    kind of friend like that to take home?

    G7 G9
    Oh, he doesn't need a tie clip
    C9
    and he doesn't use shaving foam.
    Gdim G GMaj7 G6 F7 E7
    So... what can you get a Wookiee for Christmas
    A9 D7 G
    when he already owns a comb?
    D7
    (It's really a problem)

    G D7 G6
    What can you get a Wookiee for Christmas
    A7sus A7
    when he already owns a comb?
    D7 Am7 D7
    What can you get in a hurry for a furry
    G G6 D7 G
    kind of friend like that to take home?

    G7 G9
    No, he'll never wear galoshes
    C9
    or a hat upon his furry dome
    Gdim G GMaj7 G6 F7 E7
    So... what can you get a Wookiee for Christmas
    A9 D7 G
    when he already owns a comb?

    D7 G7 C
    Let's give him love and understanding
    G7 E7
    ... good will to men
    A7
    We wrap it all up in a bright-coloured ribbon
    D7
    and we give it to him all over over again
    F#dim G D7 G6
    And that's what you get a Wookiee for Christmas
    A7sus A7
    when he already owns a comb.
