Mud, Lonely This Christmas (1974)
Key: :[B] (w: Nicky Chinn, Mike Chapman)
INTRO: [/F#/G#/A#/B] [B] [G#m] [E] [F#] :
[x2]
VERSE 1:
[B] Try to imagine a
[E] house that's not a
[F#] home
[B] Try to imagine a
[E] Christmas all a-
[F#]-lone
Thats where
[B] I'll be since you
[G#m] left me
My
[E] tears could melt the
[F#] snow
What can
[B] I do with-
[G#m]-out you?
I've got
[E] no place, no place to
[F#] go
CHORUS:
It'll be
[B] lonely this
[G#m] Christmas
with-
[E]-out you to
[F#] hold
It'll be
[B] lonely this
[G#m] Christmas
[E] lonely and
[F#] cold
It'll be
[B] cold, so
[G#m] cold
with-
[E]-out you to
[F#] hold
This
[B] Christmas
[E] [B] [F#]
VERSE 2:
[B] Each time I remember the
[E] day you went a-
[F#]-way
And
[B] how I would listen to the
[E] things you had to
[F#] say
I just
[B] break down, when I
[G#m] look around
The
[E] only things I
[F#] see
Are
[B] emptiness and
[G#m] loneliness
And an
[E] unlit Christmas
[F#] tree
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
[B] You remember last year
When
[E] you and I were to-
[F#]-gether
We
[B] never thought there'd be an end
And I
[E] remember looking at you
[F#] then
And I
[B] remember thinking that
[G#m] Christmas must have been
[E] made for
[F#] us
Coz
[B] darlin' this is the time of year
That
[G#m] you you
[E] really need
[F#] love
when it means so very very much
