C majorC G+G E7E7 FF
I'm lighting a candle, as I'm looking through my window
C majorC G+G FF
To the town square, the snow covered streets are lonely and bare,
C majorC
yeah
C majorC E7E7 FF
The town Christmas tree, winks mockingly at me,
Fm9Fm9 G+G Dm9Dm9 G+G
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you.
FF G+G Am9Am9 G+G FF
I wrapped my last gift and put the cellotape away,
Dm9Dm9 G+G Am9Am9 Am7/GAm7/G Am9Am9 Am9Am9 Am9/G
Checked the answering machine
FF G+G Am9Am9 G+G FF
And in the distance, a choir sings
G+G
About the joy that Christmas brings
C majorC G+G FF
And it's making me feel blue,
C majorC G+G FF
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you,
C majorC E7E7 Am9Am9 G+G FF
But it breaks my heart that that's the place I just can't be,
G+G FF F/E FF F/E FF F/E FF F/E FF F/E FF F/E FF F/E G+G C majorC
Cause I hate your family.
C majorC G+G
The day I met you,
E7E7 FF
I knew you could get me through.
C majorC G+G FF C majorC
When we're alone, my world is complete, you're all that I need.
C majorC G+G
But when your family call,
E7E7 FF
they shit me up the wall,
FF G+G C majorC
Spending time with them just makes my brain bleed.
G+G FF
And it's making me feel blue,
C majorC G+G FF
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you,
C majorC E7E7 Am9Am9 G+G FF
But I'd rather string my nuts up to a Christmas tree,
G+G
Cause I hate your family.
Dm9Dm9 G+G
The night I first met them,
Am9Am9 G+G FF
The dog was drunk,
Dm9Dm9 G+G Am9Am9 Am7/GAm7/G Am9Am9 Am9Am9 Am9/G
And your father threatened me with a knife.
FF G+G
Your sister showed me
Am9Am9 G+G FF
Her collection of eels,
G+G C majorC G+G
And what she did then will stay with me for life.
FF FF F/GF/G FF F/GF/G FF F/GF/G G+G
And it's making me spu,
C majorC G+G FF
Cause I should be spending Christmas with you,
C majorC E7E7 Am9Am9 G+G FF
But I'd rather drink a tumbler full of walrus wee,
G+G
Cause I hate your family.
C majorC G+G FF
With your brother doing dick tricks at the table,
C majorC G+G FF
I can't believe your mum asked me to play spin the bottle.
C majorC E7E7 Am9Am9 G+G D7D7
Yeah I'd rather be enclosed in a box of killer bees,
C majorC E7E7 Am9Am9 G+G D7D7
Yeah I'd rather be attacked by giant chimpazees,
C majorC E7E7 Am9Am9 G+G FF Fm9Fm9
Yeah I'd rather wear a suit designed by Jenny Keye
C majorC G+G FF
Your mum is dumb
C majorC G+G FF
And your dad is mad
G+G C majorC FF F/GF/G FF F/GF/G FF F/GF/G G+G
And that's why I'm so sad
Spoken Part:
C majorC G+G FF (repeat as many times as desired)
G+G C majorC
