D              A           G
It's Christmas Eve and I'm alone again
D            A              G                     D      A
I sit right by the tree and contemplate the end.. of the year
          G
Will next year be different?
D         A        G
I'm gonna wait 365 days

(Verse 2)
D            A              G
Presents piled up to the ceiling now
D      A                           G
Happiness just can't be bought and boxed up
D                      A        G
Even though I've been good this year
D            A       G
She won't be here

(Chorus)
D       A
Was it something I said?
              G
I take it all back
D         A                 G
Could you forgive the way I am?
D       A                 G
It took time but now I'm lonely
D                      A
On this cold Christmas eve
              G
The mistletoe hangs over my head without you here
D         A               G
I'm gonna wait this whole year

D   A   G

D   A   G

D         A            G
I keep on thinking Santa 
(G)

D    A              G
in a perfect little bow.
D       A           G
Are you thinking of me?
(G)                          D
I bet you're looking lovelyyyy 
      A                  G
