All Alone On Christmas

Darlene Love


Tom: G

D
  The cold wind is blowin' and the streets are getting dark
    Bm
I'm writing you a letter and I don't know where to start
    G
The bells will be ringing Saint John the Divine
  A                         G               A
I get a little lonely every year around this time

D
The music plays all night in Little Italy
    Bm
The lights will be going up on old Rockefella's tree
G
People window shopping on Fifth Avenue
A                  G         A
All I want for Christmas is you

         D
(Tell me) I've got to know
                       Bm
Where do lonely hearts go
         G                 A              D    A
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas

D
Things are different since you've been here last
Bm
Childhood dreaming is a thing of the past
G
Maybe you can bring us some hope this year
A                      G          A
Visions of sugar plums have disappeared

D
Do you remember sleigh riding in the snow
Bm
And dancing all night to "Baby, Please Come Home"
G
Today's celebration is bittersweet
A                    G              A
There's mothers and children in the street

          D
(Tell me) I've got to know
                       Bm
Where do lonely hearts go
         G                A                   D
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas

G            
I'm all grown up but I'm the same you'll see
F#m
I'm writing this letter 'cause I still believe
G
Dear Santa I've been good this year
A                                               B7 A
Can't you stay a little while with me right here

          E
(Tell me) I've got to know
                       C#m
Where do lonely hearts go
        A               B               C#m
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
A               B               E    C#m
Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
A               B               E 
Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
