D Bm
It's not my fault, it wasn't up to you

Christmas eve comes once a year and that will never do
G Em
Your image started fading
D F#m Gmaj7/E
I closed my eyes to see*
G
Tell me do you close your eyes for me?
D Bm
D Bm
Now your door seems half a world away
D Bm
The price of gasoline is more than I can pay
G Em D F#m Gmaj7/E
Plus I don't have a car I can call my very own
G
I guess I'll spend another night alone
D Bm D Bm
G A Bm7
If I could say I’m sorry
G A Bm7
Who would I say it to?
G A G A D Bm
Besides apologies mean less than dirt to folks like me and you
D Bm
You know it's true
D C D
Should I say too bad
C D
Or so what?

What's appropriate?

Should I show it?

Back at my house there's nothing on TV

G Em
I watched you from a distance
D F#m Gmaj7/E
For too briefly held you close

Notes:
I play the Gmaj7/E 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 Gmaj7 or even an Em would sound fine too :)
