Lyrics:
(Intro)
C Am (X4)
(Verse 1)
C Am C Am
When I get home for christmas
C Am C Am
I’ll do anything you want
C Am C Am
Wear your clothes like you ask me
C Am C Am
Dress up like a christmas tree
(Pre-chorus 1)(No lyrics)
E F
(Verse 2)
We can spend the day together
First time in a long long while
You can wrap me up in tinsel
Make as much noise as you like
(Pre-chorus 2)
E F
When I said, I loved her instead
(Chorus)
G F C
It’s funny how you misunderstand
G F C
I only want to hold her hand
G F C
You’re so far from me my true love (?)
G F C(start of intro again)
That I can’t see to right my, right my wrongs (?)
(Intro again)
(Verse 3)
When we get home for christmas
Like kids on our knees on the floor
Open presents between kisses
Your eyes burn stronger than the fire
(Pre-chorus 2)
(Chorus)
(Repeat intro, fade out, whatever)
