Intro:
Fmaj7  Cmaj7  F  C  x2

Verse 1:
C
One morning after drinking
B            C
Heavy in the night
F                                                      C     F   C
Every inch of my poor bones seemed to ache and moan in wait
              Dm
Cause all our troubles come tomorrow
         F                                  Cmaj7
We'll be gone and then it's on to Christmas Day

Pre-Chorus:
C
If Jesus had been born
B                C    F   C
Just eleven days before
F
Would the world have stopped to see

At least those on the street
           Cmaj7    F    C
Headed for Newtown
        Dm
And of all those on their way
          F
Could the miracle have made
             C    F    C
One lay his guns down?

Instrumental Chorus:
Fmaj7     Cmaj7
Ooooo

Fmaj7     Cmaj7

Verse 2:
C
That trigger stole his mind
B           C    F   C
How am I to blame
           F                  Cmaj7  F   C
I bet you never even aimed at one
                  Dm
There's too many people killing people
   F
To put an end to evil
            C   F   C
What can be done?

Pre-Chorus:
         F
Well for now who'd like to tell me
               Em       Am
On that morning when 27 fell
        Dm
How any lesson in counting
            F                             C
Could ever, ever amount to watching them fall
        G
And why worst of all
     F         C         F
Come Christmas morning
                 Am
They'll still be gone

Instrumental Chorus:
Fmaj7    Cmaj7  F C
Oooo...yeah
Fmaj7    Cmaj7  F C
Oooo...Oooo
Fmaj7    Cmaj7  Fmaj7
Fmaj7    Cmaj7

Outro:
C
One morning after drinking
B            C
Heavy in the night

I stopped to take a look at the crook that stole this holiday
          Dm
Well this Christmas
        F
My only wish is
                  Cmaj7  F   C  F  C
