C Fmaj7 Am G Fmaj7 (2x)
[Verse]
C Fmaj7
Well I can't wait for Christmas. Been buckle-knee'd and listless
Am G Fmaj7
and you say that you've been wishing weeks away
C Fmaj7
They hung the lights out in the street. Twisted round the boughs of the trees
Am G Fmaj7
The choir sung its holiest refrains
C Fmaj7
Like Gloria Hosanna in the highest
Am G Fmaj7
Heaven knows this year's been black and blue
C
But we're alright
Fmaj7 Am G Fmaj7
And this Christmas could be white for me and you
[Bridge]
G* Fmaj7 G* C/G
I still can't sleep on Christmas Eve
Am G Fmaj7
Buh duh buh duh buh duh buh duh
[Verse]
C Fmaj7
And we'll never miss a beat. Scarlet-faced from whiskey neat in the
Am G Fmaj7
cold singing “Dancing in the Dark”
C Fmaj7
Oh I hope these words will do. I've had my doubts but not about you
Am G Fmaj7
I'm drunk and hearing voices in car parks
C Fmaj7
And this year oh I've got love in me I swear
Am G
I hope you know…
Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 Am G Fmaj7
…Gloria In Excelsis Deo
C Fmaj7 Am G Fmaj7 (3x)
Am
[Verse]
C Fmaj7
If I should fall from grace. If I should leave this dear green place
Am G Fmaj7
And if Christmas fades without a trace
C Fmaj7
I still want you around. There's magic in this grey old town you
Am G Fmaj7
know you should show a little faith
C Fmaj7
You singing all those songs. Who cares if all the words are wrong
Am G Fmaj7
Who cares if it barely ever snows
C Fmaj7
But still the choir swells. The "Carol of the Bells" go… oh oh oh oh
