I know there's already a tab for this but I transcribed it into chords for those who can't read tablature :)
I simplified the chord sequence on the chorus a bit
(* = strum once)

Capo 1

Intro: 

D, Em-Fm-F#m, F#m-Fm-Em, Fm-F#m-G

Verse 1:

D              Em-Fm-F#m
  I know I've been a real bad guy,
   F#m-Fm-Em                    Fm-F#m-G
  my name's made the list more than a few times
D                                    Em-Fm-F#m
  You could light up a candle for every mistake that I've made
          F#m-Fm-Em 
  and I'd follow them home with you
         Fm-F#m-G
  on a pity parade
Em                 D                 A
  For years and years I pushed you aside, but never again
Chorus:

D                    A                   Em
  Wrap me up like a present and put me away
       G                          D
  and when it gets cold I'll be yours
                 A                    Em
  Let the bells ring on a fool's holiday
      G                          D
  I swear that I'm more than just broken promises,
A                   Em         G  
  decorations can change like tinsel and ribbon so
D                   A                      G (once)
  Do not open 'til you've got forever to spend

  with me on a fool's holiday

D

Verse 2:

D                  Em-Fm-F#m  
  I've always lived too selfishly,
 F#m-Fm-Em                     Fm-F#m-G
  nobody's perfect babe, but I never tried to be
            D                                      Em-Fm-F#m
  So every second I've poisoned and all of the minutes you spent on me
           F#m-Fm-Em                                          Fm-F#m-G  
  I'd give my whole life's worth of hours to fix what I broke in the first place
Em                D                   A
  For years and years I pushed you aside, but never again so

Chorus:

D                    A                   Em
  Wrap me up like a present and put me away,
       G                          D
  and when it gets cold I'll be yours
                  A                  Em
  Let the bells ring on a fool's holiday
      G                          D
  I swear that I'm more than just broken promises,
A                   Em         G
  decorations can change like tinsel and ribbon so
D                   A                      G (once)
  Do not open 'til you've got forever to spend
  
  with me on a fool's holiday

D, Em-Fm-F#m, F#m-Fm-Em, Fm-F#m-G x2

D*            A*                 G*
  Tie me in ribbons and put me away,
                             D
  know that I'll always be yours
              A*                   G*
  Bells will ring on a fool's holiday

D                    A                   Em
  Wrap me up like a present and put me away,
       G                   (stop)     
  and when it gets cold I'll be yours
   D             A                   Em
  Let the bells ring on a fool's holiday
      G                          D          
  I swear that I'm more than just broken promises,
A                   Em         G
  decorations can change like tinsel and ribbon so
D                   A                      Em       G
  Do not open 'til you've got forever to spend with me, oh
Em                  F#m                   G (once)
  Do not open 'til you've got forever to spend
                           D
