C
Last Christmas I gave you my heart

Am
But the very next day you gave it away

Dm
This year to save me from tears

G
I'll give it to someone special
Verse 1:
C
Once bitten and twice shy

Am
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye

Dm
Tell me baby do you recognize me?

G
Well it's been a year it doesn't surprise me

C
I wrapped it up and sent it

Am
With a note saying "I love you" I meant it

Dm
Now I know what a fool I've been

G
But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again
Verse 2:
C
A crowded room friends with tired eyes

Am
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice

Dm
My god I thought you were someone to rely on

G
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
Verse 3:
C
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart

Am
A man under cover but you tore me apart

Dm
Now I've found a real love (now I've found)

G
You'll never fool me again

C
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart

Am
A man under cover buy you tore him apart

Dm
Maybe next year I'll give it to someone

G
I'll give it to someone special

the song fades out with Riff 2 and Riff 3. Verse 1 and Verse 2 aren't played in Jimmy Eat World's version but you could play them. there are like three guitars in the song so you could really play either of the three riffs throughout the song.
