G Daug
Don't ask me about Christmas
G Daug
Or where I’m gonna be
G Daug
No, I haven't done my shopping
G G7
No, I?haven't?got a tree
Chorus 1:
C
Oh,?all this red and green
B7 Em Gaug
It doesn’t?quite mean the same anymore
G Em6
As it did once before
Am G
What if fairy tales just make us sad now?
Em
Is a mark on the day
Gaug G Em6
Really the best way to look and to know we are glad now?

So don't ask me about Christmas

I'm not gonna tell you
G Daug (x2)
Verse 2:

It seems I'm not alone here

I've seen many rolling eyes

It's cold and it's so dark now

It feels good to share our sighs

Oh, all this red and green

I promise I’ll try
Gaug
But I’ll probably cry
G Em6
All the good Christmases have been had now
C D7
So don't ask me about Christmas
N.C. Em
I’m not gonna tell you
Bridge:
Em Gaug G
But I do

And you too feel different
Am Cmaj7
And maybe it wouldn't be so bad
Gaug
To sit by the fire and be mad together
Verse 3:
G Daug
Don't ask me about Christmas
G Daug
I know you never do
G Daug
'Cause I will find my spirit
G G7
In waking up with you

C
Oh, ’cause all this red and green
B7 Em Gaug
It doesn't quite mean the same anymore
G Em6
As it did once before
Am D7 G
Like all things tend to do over time

But there's a beauty in sharing
D
In knowing and caring
N.C
And maybe that's all it is
G Daug
(pluck x1)
G Daug G G6 F#6
