Tom: D
D
When I go home I will walk via Tinseltown
Bm
Down LED avenues, jingle bells all around
A
Where they pluck all the stars from out the sky
G
And they hang them from rafters up on high
D
I wished away the last year, it was the worst of times
Bm
Audition for ass end of horse in village pantomime
A
Just to hear your voice calling from the back
G
“it’s behind you!” oh yeh thank God for that
[Chorus]
D5
Christmas Eve, torrential rain
B5
One single snowflake on this plain
A5
I held you in gloved hands
B5 A5
And I’m not letting go
B5 A5
I’m not letting go
D
New Year to November
Bm A
It’s looming near, it lingers close
A
Into December
G
When Christmas comes, what’s lurking goes
[Verse]
D
Saved hard all Winter to ensure your stocking’s full
Bm
Joined the choir, took myself door to door
A
Making small change with all the carollers
G
Every mention of His name changed to yours
D
A dream of you stood naked as Christmas tree
Bm
Left unattended ’til second week of February
A
In the morning, you’re lying next to me
G
Covered in gold, stole from nativity
[Chorus]
D5
Christmas Eve, torrential rain
B5
One single snowflake on this plain
A5
I held you in gloved hands
B5 A5
And I’m not letting go
B5 A5
I’m not letting go
D
New Year to November
Bm A
It’s looming near, it lingers close
A
Into December
G
When Christmas comes, what’s lurking goes
[Outro]
D
Can you hear it?
Let the bells chime!
Bm
Lift your glasses high
For the Boy Child!
A
Can you hear it?
Let the bells chime!
G
Lift your glasses high
For the Boy Child!
