On The 24Th

C        C

[Verse 1]
       C       Em                 
On the 24-th I planned my course 
      F                 C
in the last month of the year.
     C                           
As I drove through the rain that 
Em                   F            
should be snow, it’s going home, I 
 C
fear.
       C                    Em    
But it makes no sense cause going 
            F               C
back is the safest thing to do.
       C               Em          
As the ice in my glass rattles the 
F                C
lights come into view.

[Chorus]
         F                   C    
And this tavern is full of 
              Am       G          
familiar faces, they all must think 
F
like me.
        F                          
And the depths that we plunder, it 
C
does make me wonder:
Am G  C     G F     F    Am  
do we still believe   in 
      G       F         F
Christmas time at all?

[Verse 2]
           C             Em       
Guess I’ve always been a sucker 
  F               C
for drinking on the eve
        C             Em          
and I’m feeling kinda guilty as I 
F                  C
know that I should leave.

        C              Em          
Well, I like to talk tequila but I 
F                C
like to drink it more,
    C                   Em        
you know if I could I’d buy you 
           F           C
the world if I wasn’t so poor.

[Chorus]
         F                   C    
And this tavern is full of 
              Am       G          
familiar faces, they all must think 
F
like me.
        F                          
And the depths that we plunder, it 
C
does make me wonder:
Am G  C     G F     F    Am  
do we still believe   in 
      G       F         F
Christmas time at all?
Am  G   F     F      F
And   believe when I say
       Am       G          F     
that I love you all of the year,
    F

Am G                F        ( F )
al-ways, not just today.

[Interlude]
C        Em        F        C

Em       F         C
C        Em        F        C

[Verse 3]
        C                Em       
Yeah, I understand, it's tough on 
             F              C
you but it’s tough on me as well.
     C                       
And sometimes you resent your 
 Em         F           C
situation, baby, I can tell.
      C                   Em      
And I know you think that I don’t 
F                      C
try but trying’s all I do,
          C              Em       
but right now I’m trying to forget
       F                 C
 but I haven’t forgotten you.

[End-Chorus]
         F                   C    
And this tavern is full of 
              Am       G          
familiar faces, they all must think 
F
like me.
       F                        
And my heart starts to sink as I 
 C
ponder and think:
Am G  C     G F     F    Am  
do we still believe   in 
      G       F         F
Christmas time at all?
Am  G   F            F
And   believe when I say
       Am       G          F     
that I love you all of the year,
    F

Am G                F        ( F )
al-ways, not just today,
Am G                F
al-ways, not just today.
