[Verse 1]
C                    C   G
The coldest night out, December
C                            C         G
He bought the house a little Christmas tree
C                              C            G
Put it on top of the fridge to make it feel taller
C                  C          G
Brought joy to the world, for me

[Verse 2]
C                              C         G
He made some food for me while I lit the fire
C                        C         G
It's easy started not so easy kept going
C                      C         G
I always falter at the crucial decisions
C                          C      G
Put more feel on and Go to sleep alone

[Verse 3]
C                        C          G
How long are we going to leave it unsaid for
C                    C         G
Another love another bottle of wine
C                        C                 G
I've lost the ability to judge from the outside
C                         C           G
Cause I've become my only measures of time

Why are all the good men
C                        C G
Too old, taken or dead
C                        C G
I led him up to bed
C                       F         G
Blacken my heart with a cigarette instead
