G D
[Verse 1]
G Em C D
Children are singing just outside my door
G Em C D
Snowflakes are falling it's Christmas once more
G G7 C Am
Everyone's happy but I feel so blue
G Em C D7
It's just not like Christmas since I don't have you
[Chorus]
C G
So don't wish me merry Christmas this year
D7 G
For how could that ever be
G7 C Am
Tell me how could Christmas be merry and bright
G D7 G C G D
If you're not here with me
[Verse 2]
G Em C D
We used to add presents and hang mistletoe
G Em C D
Then sit by the fireside and turn the light low
G G7 C Am
But things are so different since you went away
G Em C D7
And now to me Christmas is just another day
[Chorus]
C G
So don't wish me merry Christmas this year
D7 G
For how could that ever be
G7 C Am
Tell me how could Christmas be merry and bright
G D7 G C G
If you're not here with me
