Em            B
The 22nd of December

D                       A
We were dressing up the tree

Em                   B
The radio was playing caroling

D                  A
The music warm and comforting

Bb                C            D
Then there came a knock upon a door

   Bb                 C         D
Outside there stood a man in uniform

   Bb           C                 D
He asked me "Son are your parents in"

  Bb             C                A
A friend of yours has had an accident
[Verse 2]
Em                                    B
He said I'll speak to your mother and father

D                                   A
There are some things you shouldn't hear

Em                               B
I left the room where they could speak to him

D                           A
Why I should leave I wasn't sure

Bb                C                 D
Through the walls I heard my mother cry

Bb         C                   D
"Oh my God, he's just a little boy"

Bb                C            D
Someone found him high up in a tree

Bb             C              A
Hanging by his neck for all to see
[Chorus]
Ab           Fm               Eb   Bb/D Cm
Oh no, no, no, don't leave us crying

Ab           Fm               Eb   Bb/D Cm
Oh no, no, no, don't leave us crying
[Interlude] Gb [Verse 3]
Em                           B
We were the closest of young friends

D                                 A
Our thoughts and hopes, we shared together

Em                             B
He dreamed he'd race a thoroughbred

D                           A
To ride that horse and be a winner

  Bb                C            D
It couldn't be, his body was too weak

    Bb               C                  D
The sickness that he had could take him down

   Bb              C               A
He took his life before he died in pain
[Chorus]
Ab           Fm                      Eb   Bb/D Cm
Oh no, no, no, please don't leave us crying

Ab           Fm               Eb   Bb/D Cm
Oh no, no, no, don't leave us crying
[Solo] G Em G Em A [Chorus 3]
Ab           Fm               Eb  Bb/D Cm
Oh no, no, no, don't leave us crying   please

Ab           Fm            Eb   Bb/D Cm
Oh no, no, no, you left us crying
