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