Intro: G (x3) Cadd9 D
Verse 1:
G
Christmas night, another fight
Cadd9 D
Tears we cried a flood
G
Got all kinds of poison in
Cadd9 D
Poison in my blood
G
I took my feet
To Oxford Street
Cadd9 D
Trying to right a wrong
G
Just walk away
Those windows say
Cadd9 D
But I can’t believe she’s gone
Cadd9
When you’re still waiting for the snow to fall
D2 G
Doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all
G }x3 Cadd9 D
Em7
Up above candles on air flicker
Cadd9 G
Oh they flicker and they float
G
But I’m up here holding on
Dsus4 D
To all those chandeliers of hope
Em7
Like some drunken Elvis singing
Cadd9 G
I go singing out of tune
G
Saying how I always loved you darling
Dsus4 D
And I always will
Cadd9
Oh when you’re still waiting for the snow to fall
D2
Doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all

Still waiting for the snow to fall

It doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all
