[Verse 1]
C
We put the lights up on the tree
C
And all the presents underneath
          F
Light the fire, it's getting cold
F
Another year of "Will it snow?"
       C
Mixing lager and champagne
C
Somethin' I'll never do again
          F
Round the table banter flows
F
Praying no one rocks the boat


[Chorus]
        Am                             F
Still I know, this picture's not quite right
                        C
There's someone on your mind
                         G                         Am
First Christmas time without him by your side, I know
                       F
The sound of Christmas bells
                   C
They never say farewell
                       G
So we laugh, we shed a tear
                       C
For those who can't be here


[Verse 2]
C
We're drinking sherry just because
C
Confessing all our Christmas love
            F
Watch Home Alone for the thousandth time
F
It's the only movie that we all like


[Chorus]
      Am                             F
But I know, this picture's not quite right
                      C
There's someone on my mind
                         G                        Am
First Christmas time without him by our side, I know
                         F
He loved these Christmas bells
                          C
'Cause they never say farewell
                       G
So we laugh, we shed a tear
                       C
For those who can't be here
