[Intro] (4/4)
F C Bb G
F C Bb G
[Verse 1] (5/4)
F C
If I missed my chance, I didn't even try
Bb G
I'm not one to regret Christmas in July
F C
If my timing is bad, like a fish on a bike
Bb G
Would you let me pretend: Christmas in July?
F C
I'm not one to admit; I'm not one to fight
Bb G
Maybe I was wrong, or maybe I was right
F C
Like when I went to school, drinking coffee at night
Bb G
And I did what I did; now I do what I like
[Chorus] (3/4)
F Eb C Bb
Open the cham - pagne, party and pensive
F Eb C Bb
Your mother said it's very expensive
F Eb C Bb
Do what you want to, don't even ask us
F Eb C Bb Dm
Paraguay, Bos - ton, Philly, Damascus
[Interlude]
F Dm F Bb
[Verse 2] (5/4)
F C
Maybe it's the snow, the endless winter nights
Bb G
And the winter coat, the one you never liked
F C
But I'll take the sun and I'll take my kite
Bb G
Christmas on the beach, Christmas in July
F C
And I love my friends even if they fight
Bb G
Christmas in July, just to keep them quiet
F C
And I love you too, I love you through the night
Bb G
But now that you're away, Christmas isn't right
[Interlude] (3/4)
F Eb C Bb
F Eb C Bb
F Eb C Bb
Don't take o - ffenses; come to your senses
F Eb C Bb Dm
Your confidence is straddling fences
[Outro]
F C
If I miss my chance, I didn't even try
Bb G
I'm not one to regret Christmas in July
