(Some C's may be Cadd9)
G
Every Christmas I come back to this town.
C
I come looking through some lost and found
G C
Wondering if you're still hanging around down here.
G
With the holiday lights, they line these streets
C
Where I once loved you & you once loved me.
Am C
I'm sorry, it just gets to me.
C Am
I wonder if I called up your house
C D
If your momma would let you out?
C
Maybe, baby
G D
I'll see you this Christmas, What do you say?
C D (Twice & Hold)
Or maybe, baby
G
I'll see you on New Year's Day.
G
I remember your eyes with the snow outside
C
You said, "This place always looked a little better in white."
G C
I wanna look up and see your face one more time.
G
Feels like the clock stopped ticking the day that I left,
C
I think of you & I still catch my breath
Am C
I'm sorry, you still get to me.
C Am
I wonder if you'll be going out,
C D
There's only one party in this town.
C
Maybe, baby,
G
I'll see you this Christmas
D
I hope and pray.
C D
Or maybe, baby,
G
I'll see you on New Year's Day.
Am
Baby it's so strange being back here again,
C
I keep running into all of our old friends.
G
This whole town ringing in one more year,
C
I don't wanna let this feeling disappear.
Am
I prayed that you might be here tonight,
C
And there you were standing, shining underneath that light,
G
Screaming at the ball on TV, counting down.
D (Strum once each) Am Am C
Streamers and papers piling up on the ground.
(Strum once each) Am Am C
Baby, did you come here alone?
(Strum once each) Am C
Are you maybe looking for someone?
(Strum once each) Am Am C
To kiss you?
(Strum once each) Am Am C
God I've missed you.
C
Maybe, baby,
G
we didn't get Christmas,
D
But if you stay.
C D (twice&hold)
Or maybe, baby,
G
We could have New Year's Day.
