[Intro] |C G |B Em |Em |D7 |D |D | [Chorus]
G                         Am
Every holiday I feel that depression

Am            Am
From all this division

        G                      G
And we don't care, no we don't care

           Em            Em7                   C    C
We're just sitting in my garage, talking to my aunt

          G                          C
About the storm surge, icebergs, and spring in New England

      G                             C                      C
And a new ring on an old friend and mothers get impatient
[Verse 1]
    G                               Em                      Em
But maybe it's all worth it just to see if we can outrun it

      C           C/B        Am
And I look at you across the room

     C         B       Em       Em
Your eyes like sinking balloons

      G                  D               G         C
Merry Christmas, babe, I hope we make it through
G C [Bridge]
    G              C
And it gets heavy, it starts raining

    G            C                 G                    G7
And I start noticing the placement of your hand upon my spine

    Am                 Am
The fading love is the darkest kind

    G             C
But somehow we'll forget tonight

       G             C
And go up on ladders stringing lights

    G            Am        D7
The gutter never shined so bright
[Chorus]
     G                         Am
When every holiday I feel that depression

Am               Am
From all of this pressure

       G                       G
And we don't care, no we don't care

        Em                 Em7                 C    C
We just hope it don't stay long, talking to my aunt

          G                           C
About the warm earth, cold words, and men that make decisions

G                          C                      C
Lying on the TV 'cause the money skips the women
[Verse 2]
    G                               Em                   Em
But maybe it's all worth it just to see if we can outrun it

      C           C/B        Am
And I look at you across the room

     C         B       Em       Em
Your eyes like sinking balloons

      G                  D               G      
Merry Christmas, babe, I hope we make it through
[Instumental] |G |Am |B B7 |C D | |G |Am |B B7 |C |D |D7 [Chorus]
G                         Am
Every holiday I feel that depression

Am               Am
From all of this pressure

    G                               Em
And maybe it's all worth it just to see if we can outrun it

      C           C/B        Am
And I look at you across the room

     C         B       Em       Em
Your eyes like sinking balloons

      G                  C
Merry Christmas, babe, I hope we make it through
