Intro
F Dm F Dm
OR (depending on your taste)
F F/D F F/D
F Dm
It's not my fault, it wasn't up to you
F Dm
Christmas eve comes once a year and that will never do
A# Gm
Your image started fading
F Am A#maj7/G
I closed my eyes to see*
A#
Tell me do you close your eyes for me?
F Dm
F Dm
Now your door seems half a world away
F Dm
The price of gasoline is more than I can pay
A# Gm F Am A#maj7/G
Plus I don't have a car I can call my very own
A#
I guess I'll spend another night alone
F Dm F Dm
A# C Dm7
If I could say I’m sorry
A# C Dm7
Who would I say it to?
A# C A# C F Dm
Besides apologies mean less than dirt to folks like me and you
F Dm
You know it's true
F D# F
Should I say too bad
D# F
Or so what?
D# Dm
What's appropriate?
Dm A#
Should I show it?
Dm A# Dm A# Dm F
Call you on the phone and let you know it?
N.C.
Back at my house there's nothing on TV
The bathroom mirror casts confusing looks from me to me
A# Gm
I watched you from a distance
F Am A#maj7/G
For too briefly held you close
A#
I guess that's just the way this story goes
F Dm F Dm A# C Dm7
Notes:
I play the A#maj7/G like this:
e|-3-
B|-5-
G|-4-
D|-5-
A|-0-
E|-x-
This chord is my best guess of what to play here, but if that's too tricky,
a A#maj7 or even an Gm would sound fine too :)
