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