Capo 2nd fret, with C, G, Em, and F chord shapes.
[D]        [D]        [A]        [F#m]        [G]        [D]        [A]        [F#m]        [G]        [D]        [A]        [F#m]        [G]        [D]        [A]        [G]  

[D]Clean white [A]snow [F#m]        [G]        [D]coming [A]down [F#m]        [G]  
[D]looks so [A]pretty [F#m]        [G]        [D]all [A]around [F#m]        [G]  

[D]Ice-cold [A]noses [F#m]        [G]and [D]woollen [A]touques [F#m]        [G]  
[D]Lit up [A]houses, [F#m]        [G]        [D]snow in my [A]boots [G]  

It's De[D]cember in the [A]North
there's a [G]fire in the [D]hearth
doff your [D]jacket and your [A]scarf
grab a [G]cup of something [D]   hot to quench your [A]thirst
there ain't [G]nothing on the [D]earth
like [G]December [A]in the [D]North

[INSTRUMENTAL]  

Snowballs flying, advance and retreat
Mischievous grins and rosy cheeks

Inner warmth, in the outside chill
Body running but the mind stands still

It's De[D]cember in the [A]North
there's a [G]fire in the [D]hearth
doff your [D]jacket and your [A]scarf
grab a [G]cup of something [D]   hot to quench your [A]thirst
there ain't [G]nothing on the [D]earth
like [G]December [A]in the [D]North

[INSTRUMENTAL]  

Muddy footprints are all erased
A new-born world shows its face

The smell of mother's baking, cinnamon and clove
Wool clothes drying too close to the stove

It's De[D]cember in the [A]North
there's a [G]fire in the [D]hearth
doff your [D]jacket and your [A]scarf
grab a [G]cup of something [D]   hot to quench your [A]thirst
there ain't [G]nothing on the [D]earth
like [G]December [A]in the [D]North

[INSTRUMENTAL]
