As recorded by Chris Isaak (From the 2022 Album EVERYBODY KNOWS IT'S CHRISTMAS) [Intro] D G D A D N.C. [Verse 1]
N.C.     D
Wrapping presents for myself

                G       D
Christmas music doesn't help

                                            A
And I'm wondering, will it always hurt this way?

                               D
Just another lonely, empty holiday
[Chorus]
N.C.  G              D
And I wish you merry Christmas

                         A
And I wish you happy holidays

      G                     D
And I wish you a very merry Christmas

A     D       G       D
And I wish, I wish to God

       A            D
Things weren't this way
[Verse 2]
D              A        D
You are there, and I am here

                      G        D
The children's voices sound so clear

D
I can hear them

                             A
In the background while they play

            D
I should go now, while I can

                    G    D
It's hard for me to understand

                     A
How two people so in love

               D
Could end this way
[Chorus]
N.C.  G              D
And I wish you merry Christmas

                         A
And I wish you happy holidays

      G                     D
And I wish you a very merry Christmas

A     D       G       D
And I wish, I wish to God

       A            D
Things weren't this way
[Guitar Solo] D G D A D [Verse 3]
N.C.                  A     D
Christmas dinner on a paper plate

                 G    D
I can't remember what I ate

                            A
I stayed at home, I stayed alone

          D
I still replay
[Chorus]
N.C.  G              D
And I wish you merry Christmas

                         A
And I wish you happy holidays

      G                     D
And I wish you a very merry Christmas

A     D       G       D
And I wish, I wish to God

       A            D   G
Things weren't this way
[Outro]
      D       G       D
And I wish, I wish to God

       A             D
Things weren't this way
