Key: :[E] (w: Nicky Chinn, Mike Chapman)
INTRO: [/B/C#/D#/E] [E] [C#m] [A] [B] :
[x2]
VERSE 1:
[E] Try to imagine a
[A] house that's not a
[B] home
[E] Try to imagine a
[A] Christmas all a-
[B]-lone
Thats where
[E] I'll be since you
[C#m] left me
My
[A] tears could melt the
[B] snow
What can
[E] I do with-
[C#m]-out you?
I've got
[A] no place, no place to
[B] go
CHORUS:
It'll be
[E] lonely this
[C#m] Christmas
with-
[A]-out you to
[B] hold
It'll be
[E] lonely this
[C#m] Christmas
[A] lonely and
[B] cold
It'll be
[E] cold, so
[C#m] cold
with-
[A]-out you to
[B] hold
This
[E] Christmas
[A] [E] [B]
VERSE 2:
[E] Each time I remember the
[A] day you went a-
[B]-way
And
[E] how I would listen to the
[A] things you had to
[B] say
I just
[E] break down, when I
[C#m] look around
The
[A] only things I
[B] see
Are
[E] emptiness and
[C#m] loneliness
And an
[A] unlit Christmas
[B] tree
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
[E] You remember last year
When
[A] you and I were to-
[B]-gether
We
[E] never thought there'd be an end
And I
[A] remember looking at you
[B] then
And I
[E] remember thinking that
[C#m] Christmas must have been
[A] made for
[B] us
Coz
[E] darlin' this is the time of year
That
[C#m] you you
[A] really need
[B] love
when it means so very very much
REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
