Intro

Friday it's the thirteenth 'til the twentyfourth it's not so long to go

tho' my face don't show my temperature is getting too low

I've seen it all in a dream

I know just how it's gonna feel alike

not to be alive anymore

Chorus

I'll be dead by christmas now anyway

tell me will you remember me that day

when you've found a new one who's better than I ever was

I'll be dead by christmas now anyway

please give all my things away

they will make christmas presents for you and for all my friends

It hurts so inside to see you with another from the edge of a cloud

Whatever happened to the promises that you gave before the angels took me away.

So here I'm all dressed in white

while you're drinkin' up my best friends wine

 and you don't realize that I'm with you all the time.

Chorus

I'll be dead by christmas now anyway

tell me will you remember me that day

when you've found a new one who's better than I ever was

I'll be dead by christmas now anyway

please give all my things away

they will make christmas presents for you and for all my friends

It's getting so lonely without you

and I'm sure - I am jealous too

I see another man in my bed

(Come up, come up)

be sure that I can get no rest before you're up here with me

Come up, come up, come up, come up, come up!

Chorus

I'll be dead this christmas now anyway

leave the flowers on my grave

sure a way you can join me anyday around honey

You'll be dead this christmas now anyway

you'll lay beside me in our family grave

we'll be making love eternally in a spiritual way

Outro

(No guitar)(Repeat & fade out)

I'll be dead by Christmas,

dead and gone.

Christmas is forever.
