Standard (EADGBE)
Everybody waits for Christmas
for me it's New Year's Day
that's gonna come and take my blues away
I'm wishing on the stars for Christmas
and hoping for a better day
when it doesn't hurt to feel this way
and everywhere there's joy around this festive time of year
but happiness has never felt so far away
Chorus
all of the bells ringing out for Christmas
I'm singing goodbye to the year before
I know that the next one will be different so much more
all of the bells ringing out for Christmas and I'm not supposed
to feel this way
but all that I want this year for Christmas is New Year's Day
it's only seven days 'till Christmas
six more 'till New Year's Day
it's not a good time to feel this way
everywhere the snow surrounds you
and melts your troubles away
I can only hope to feel the same
I know that there'll be tidings of joy this time next year
but happiness has never felt so far away
Chorus

I remember how I used to feel at Christmas
