Verse 1:
Gb Db
You call me down for Christmas cake
Gb Db
Although that's not a thing
I sigh
Gb Db
But I take a plate
I take a bite
Ab
And the look that you give me is heavy with pride
Verse 2:
Gb Db
You bring me sticks that you find in the wild
Gb Db
And I count every one and then hang them
Gb Db Ab
Over the fire with patterns of wire and bow
A
Then we roll on the carpet and howl in the snow
Chorus:
B Db
There is a place that I'm home
Ab A B
In condos, apartments, in suburbs and islands
A B Db
There is a face that I know
A Ab Gb2
And wherever it is I find that my Christmas isn't cold
Verse 3:
Gb Db
You wake me up by dumping presents
Gb Db
On my bed and forcing my head
Gb Db
Into a hat that's red and white
Ab
Then it's up to the roof for a snowball fight
Verse 4:
Gb Db
You get the brandy and offer me some
Gb Db
Although we both know I'm too young
Gb Db
And when I refuse you're amused then pass out
Ab A
So I turn on the reruns and watch them with you on the couch
Chorus:
B Db
There is a place that I'm home
Ab A B
In condos, apartments, in suburbs and islands
A B Db
There is a face that I know
A Ab Gb2
And wherever it is I find that my Christmas isn't cold
Verse 5:
Gb Db
It's the end of the day and it's way too late
Gb Db
But I log in just to say "Hi!"
Gb Db Ab
What's up? What did you get? What was your Christmas like?
Chorus:
B Db
There is a place that I'm home
Ab A B
In condos, apartments, in suburbs and islands
A B Db
There is a face that I know
A Ab Gb2
And wherever it is I find that my Christmas isn't cold
Gb E
My Christmas isn't cold
E
My Christmas isn't cold
Gb
My Christmas isn't cold
Gb
My Christmas isn't cold
Gb E
My Christmas isn't cold
Gb
My Christmas isn't cold
Gb Db
Ho, ho, ho home
