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