Chords

[Intro] C Am F (x2) [Verse 1]
C                        Am
 I came two weeks before Christ

    F
Not tender nor mild

                                       C
From the womb I came a-wailing "Silent Night"

                  Am             F
But I'll give you something to believe in

C                                    Am
 You'll see three ships sailing in

      F
I'm a frail evergreen

  C
Be a bauble a-hanging off of me

               Am               F
Pine needles a-pricking at your bare feet
[Pre-Chorus]
G#
I'll be anything you want of me

Eb                            F#
A carrot-nosed encased in snow

G#
An angel teetering atop a tree

Eb                         F
Though vomiting from vertigo
[Chorus]
F                                    G#  Eb
If you'll be mine for Christmas

F            G#  Eb
A doe to a deer

F                         G#  Eb
I'll be home for Christmas

F                    G#  Eb
And home will be here
[Intro] C Am F (x2) [Verse 2]
C                            Am
 I'm three sheets to the wind

        F
But the wind is a sleet

                                                    C
And this sheet ain't one of snow to play beneath

                  Am              F
And my nose is red from the whiskey

C                        Am
 I'm Boxing Day game away

            F
Shirtless cherubs on the terrace

                                                    C
Singing hymns, praying the saviour scores today

C                  Am                   F
 And that he is one, but not the only
[Pre-Chorus]
G#
I'll be anything you want of me

Eb                            F#
A carrot-nosed encased in snow

G#
An angel teetering atop a tree

Eb                         F
Though vomiting from vertigo
[Chorus]
F                                    G#  Eb
If you'll be mine for Christmas

F            G#  Eb
A doe to a deer

F                         G#  Eb
I'll be home for Christmas

F                    G#  Eb
And home will be here
[Bridge]
C
If you're looking for me, follow any star

Am
'Cause I will be around, no matter where you are

    C
I'm CCTV video late night on Christmas Eve

Am
Window shopping in full Santa suit, blind drunk on the High Street

C
Never got a gift, gold, frankincense or myrrh

Am
And never would've cared if you could just have her

    C
I'm Christmas morning stumbling home up the cul-de-sac

    Am
Flanked by kids upon new bikes, stabilising my walk back
[Pre-Chorus]
G#
I'll be anything you want of me

Eb                            F#
A carrot-nosed encased in snow

G#
An angel teetering atop a tree

Eb                         F
Though vomiting from vertigo
[Chorus]
F                                G#  Eb
If you'll be mine for Christmas

  F          G#  Eb
A doe to a deer

F                         G#  Eb
I'll be home for Christmas

    F                G#  Eb
And home will be here

    F                                G#  Eb
If you'll be mine for Christmas

  F           G#  Eb
A doe to a deer

    F                                G#  Eb
If you'll be mine for Christmas

    F                                G#  Eb  F
If you'll be mine for Christmas
