[Couplet]
G                G
I hope I fit in, this old sweater
G
Cause I can't afford one that fits better
G                 G
I must be bloated from my dinner
G
Cause just last year my reflection was thinner

[Pre-chorus]
Am7                   Dmaj7
Ain't it funny how we grow
Am7                      Dmaj7
Then it really starts to show when

[Chorus]
Cmaj7       G
It's been a year
Cmaj7        G
Christmas is here
Cmaj7     G       Em7
Family is near to say
Am7                D
My how much you've changed

[Couplet]
G                  G
I got two sisters, they both got misters
G
Maybe this year I'll bring back a misses
G                    G
But I just can't yet understand it
G
Every year I come home empty handed

[Pre-chorus]
Am7                     Dmaj7
Ain't it funny how they know
Am7                     Dmaj7
I have nothing there to show when

[Chorus]
Cmaj7       G
It's been a year
Cmaj7        G
Christmas is here
Cmaj7     G       Em7
Family is near to say
Am7                D
My how much you've changed

[Interlude]
G

[Bridge]
Am7                      Dmaj7
Oh, and what a year it's been
Am7                   Dmaj7
Now it's finally here again
Am7                       Dmaj7
The time of year that you fear
                      Am7              Dmaj7
But you know that you don't want it to end

[Chorus]
Cmaj7       G
It's been a year
Cmaj7        G
Christmas is here
Cmaj7     G       Em7
Family is near to say
Am7                D
My how much you've changed
