Intro:
C Csus4
C G E7 F
I'm lighting a candle, as I'm looking through my window
C G F
To the town square, the snow covered streets are lonely and bare,
C
yeah
C E7 F
The town Christmas tree, winks mockingly at me,
Fm9 G Dm9 G
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you.
F G Am9 G F
I wrapped my last gift and put the cellotape away,
Dm9 G Am9 Am7/G Am9 Am9 Am9/G
Checked the answering machine
F G Am9 G F
And in the distance, a choir sings
G
About the joy that Christmas brings
C G F
And it's making me feel blue,
C G F
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you,
C E7 Am9 G F
But it breaks my heart that that's the place I just can't be,
G F F/E F F/E F F/E F F/E F F/E F F/E F F/E G C
Cause I hate your family.
C G
The day I met you,
E7 F
I knew you could get me through.
C G F C
When we're alone, my world is complete, you're all that I need.
C G
But when your family call,
E7 F
they shit me up the wall,
F G C
Spending time with them just makes my brain bleed.
G F
And it's making me feel blue,
C G F
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you,
C E7 Am9 G F
But I'd rather string my nuts up to a Christmas tree,
G
Cause I hate your family.
Dm9 G
The night I first met them,
Am9 G F
The dog was drunk,
Dm9 G Am9 Am7/G Am9 Am9 Am9/G
And your father threatened me with a knife.
F G
Your sister showed me
Am9 G F
Her collection of eels,
G C G
And what she did then will stay with me for life.
F F F/G F F/G F F/G G
And it's making me spu,
C G F
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you,
C E7 Am9 G F
But I'd rather drink a tumbler full of walrus wee,
G
Cause I hate your family.
C G F
With your brother doing dick tricks at the table,
C G F
I can't believe your mum asked me to play spin the bottle.
C E7 Am9 G D7
Yeah I'd rather be enclosed in a box of killer bees,
C E7 Am9 G D7
Yeah I'd rather be attacked by giant chimpazees,
C E7 Am9 G F Fm9
Yeah I'd rather wear a suit designed by Jenny Keye
C G F
Your mum is dumb
C G F
And your dad is mad
G C F F/G F F/G F F/G G
And that's why I'm so sad
Spoken Part:
C G F (repeat as many times as desired)
