Capo 2
[G]...I don't know how [Em]love [C]could do this to [D]me
[G]...I've waited and [Em]waited for some[C]one I [D]never see
[B7]But I'm so sentimental and I'm so [Em]hopeful you'll be here
So here I [C]am every [D7]year, every [G]Christmas [Cm]Yeah [G]
[G]...I've [Em]wished for you in [C]my heart and in [D]my head
[G]...And I got my [Em]answer that first [C]moment that [D]we met
[B7]And, oh yes, I believed you as you [Em]told me, as you said
You'd be [C]here every [D7]year, every [G]Christmas [Cm] [G]
[C]There must be a lesson [Cm]for me to learn
If you [G]don't trust in [Em]love, you'll get [Bm]nothing in re[C]turn
[C]Why should I be lonely? [Cm]Don't tell me it's fine
[A7]I have my pride, but I'd rather be with you to[D7]night
[G]...So much e[Em]motion, [C]it's driving me [D]mad, yeah, [G]hey
But I'll take my [Em]chances with these [C]feelings that I [D]have
[B7]And I'll come back to this same [Em]corner where we met
And I'll be [C]here every [D7]year, every [G]Christmas
[C]Mere words can't explain [Cm]the pain and the fear
'Cause, oh, I [G]wonder, yes I [Em]wonder Are you gonna l[Bm]eave me standing [C]here?
[C]Today's almost over, [Cm]but I don't wanna leave
Has my [A7]heart made a fool out of [D7]me?
[G]...And my friends gather [Em]'round me [C]with holiday [D]cheer, yeah
[G]...They say to for[Em]get you, to let you [C]go 'cause you're [D]not here
[B7]Well, I can't keep explaining what they'll [Em]never understand
And why I'm [C]here every [D7]year, every [G]Christmas
I re[C]turn every [D7]year, every [G]Christmas
I come [C]here every [D7]year, every [G]Christmas
