Verse
E B
It's only a little piece of sky
A E
It's only a little tear in my eye
B
Take the ones you think will last
A E
Take another one on my behalf
[Chorus]
D A
And as long as we can hold it together
E B
Well, the rest can go to hell
D A
And as long as we can hold up in here
E B
As the weather starts to swell
[Verse 2]
E B
I'm thinking of a number
A E
Somewhere between me and you
B
I'll just sit here for a minute
A E
Watch the oil water red and blue
[Chorus]
D A
So take a walk around the grounds now
E B
Hear the sprinklers chiming in
D A
And as long as we can hold up in here
E B
We'll let the rest of the world begin
[Bridge]
A G#m A
I don't think anyone can tell
C#m G#
I told you I'm not well
A E B
I told you baby, yeah I'm not well
C#m G#
I told you I'm not well
A B
Pretty soon everyone can tell
[Verse 3]
E B
So I sold off all your memories
A E
Gave away all the things you don't need
B
But there's something I couldn't let go of
A E
But it's nothing you don't know of
D A
So let's just call it quits now
E B
And farewell those Graceville girls
[Chorus]
D A
And as long as we can hold up in here
E B
And wave goodbye to this world
A G#m A
I don't think anyone can tell
C#m G#
I told you I'm not well
A E B
I told you baby, yeah I'm not well
C#m G#
I told you I'm not well
A B
Pretty soon everyone can tell
[Outro]
C#m G#
Merry Christmas baby
A E B
We're gonna miss you baby
C#m G#
Merry Christmas baby
A E B
We're gonna miss you baby
C#m G#
Merry Christmas
A E
You're gonna miss us
C#m G#
Merry Christmas
A E B
You're gonna miss us
