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