[Intro]
D Em A D
[Verse 1]
D Bm I've been on the road for three weeks now playing sold out shows Em D/F# G A Driving back through Arkansas, we ran into snow D Bm I thought I'd be there in time for dinner Christmas Eve Em D/F# G A But there's a jackknifed rig blocking 40 East
[Chorus]
D Em Oh, but leave the Christmas lights on for me A G A Bm I don't wanna spend it in a motel all alone D Em Leave the Christmas lights on for me G D/F# A D Em A D Christmas won't be Christmas if I can't make it home
[Verse 2]
D Bm I love what I do, but I hate the being gone Em D/F# G A The thrill of Christmas morning's something I can't miss out on D Bm Tell the kids I'm bringing presents, and I swear I'm on my way Em D/F# G A But the way it's looking, I might have to hop in Santa's sleigh
[Chorus]
D Em Oh, but leave the Christmas lights on for me A G A Bm I don't wanna spend it in a motel all alone D Em Leave the Christmas lights on for me G D/F# A D Christmas won't be Christmas if I can't make it home
[Bridge]
F#m G About the time I started losing hope D A/C# Bm Like a miracle, the weather broke A Em And they cleared the roads A Alright, here we go
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
D Em Leave the Christmas lights on for me A G A Bm I ain't gonna spend it in a motel all alone D Em Leave the Christmas lights on for me G D/F# A D Christmas won't be Christmas if I can't make it home G D Oh, but I'll be there for Christmas A D I'm gonna make it home
