[Verse 1]

      C                    G      
I was anxious to visit the church 
     C
last night
         F            C     
I needed something to tell me 
         G       C
it will be alright
  C                   G      C
I put faith in me for so damn long
    F            C            G  
I'm beginning to see where it all
      C
 went wrong
        F       C        G  
Still I put up a tree with our 
        C
little boys
   Am
On Christmas I'll have them
                           G
So that they can open their toys


[Chorus]
C               G       C
Merry Christmas mom and dad
  F       C        G         C
I know my hardship makes you sad
 C                             
But there'll come a point when I 
G          C
will get by
       F          C          G   
When I wake up tomorrow I'll try 
       C
not to cry


[Verse 2]
      C                       
I was anxious to write to your 
  G          C
friend last night
   F           C           G     
No matter the outcome she said 
        C
it'll be alright

            C                
But I can't listen to that, I 
 G              C
believe we are more
    F             C             G
The four of us together is what 
            C
I'm fighting for
        F              C           
Still I can't make you love me and 
G       C
I understand
Am                               G
How can you ever return to that man


[Chorus]
C                 G     C
Merry Christmas, lovely girl
F            C         G    C
Behind that wall there is a pearl
C                    G     C
I hope you travel a joyful road
       F       C             G   
I'll cover my hurt, so I can 
       C
carry your load


[Verse 3]
          C                        
I'll keep drawing those pictures 
            G              C
And I'll keep painting those toys
      F          C             G 
I'll count on my blessings, 
           C
embrace all my joys
           C            G         
I think I always wonder what could
      C
 have been
            F          C          
If we'd had opened our hearts and 
G            C
just tried again
   F         C           G       C
So I will be thankful, I finally see
     Am                            
That selfish old man that you lived
             G
 with Is not me


[Chorus]
C                G     C
Merry Christmas, oh my lord
  F      C             G       C
I never know what life has in store
    C                   G          
But I will not fear and I will get 
C
by
       F          C       G       
I have peace in my heart, until I 
C

Will there come a point when I 
       C
will get by
     F          C            G   
I'll wake up tomorrow, I'll try
