verse 1
D E A F#m
It?s around this time of year I get to thinking
D E A C#7
About all the things I wish I?d said or done
D E F#m E D#dim
If I ever get myself together I?ll be stunned
D E
I know that I can?t be the only one
verse 2
D E A F#m
Resolutions rarely lead to revolutions
D E A C#7
No not everyone can spark one from their bed
D E F#m E D#dim
I?m tired and uninspired, truth be told rather be dead
D Dm Dm6
The past is something I can?t seem to shed
Pre-Chorus
A C#m
But it?s Christmas I?ll go through the motions
D A E
Atoning for mistakes I haven?t made
A C#m Cm
It?s the litmus, of my devotion
Bm Esus4 E
To people that don?t matter anyway

Outro
F G
I keep hoping maybe next year things will change
C Am F
Then when nothing?s different I try to assuage and smile
G Am G
As time passes me by
F G
I send more prayers than postcards despite all I lack
Am G F#dim
Yet every movement forward brings me two steps back
F Em Gm A7
It?s time for cheer, maybe next year
Dm G
And I won?t find anything I need beneath the tree
E7 A
Or anyone around it that might disagree
Dm G
That just because it?s Christmas doesn?t mean I?m having
Ab Am Bbdim7 E7/B
fun
F Fm6 Cmaj7
Just because it?s Christmas doesn?t mean I?m having fun.
F G E E7 Am G D
Just because it?s Christmas doesn?t mean I?m having fun
F G E E7 Am G D
Despite all my ambition, what exactly have I done?
