Chords
These are the raw chords from "Looking for Chritmas" off of Switchfoot's "this is our christmas album"
The song has a few key changes as it progresses, so you could play it with the tuning down one semitone
and transpose all the chords up 1 from there.
[Intro]
Eb Gm Eb Gm Bb
[Verse]
Eb There's a man near the freeway on-ramp Gm The sign says he's looking for change Cm Bb The lives we lead as strangers Ab Bb Make the whole world feel so strange Eb I give him a couple green pieces of paper Gm Ex-presidents faces and names Cm Bb B And he asks me whether cash could ever bring change
[Pre-Chorus]
Db B And all the carols in my ear Db Bb Feel disturbingly inept and insincere
[Chorus]
Eb Oh, I'm still looking for Christmas Gm Tell me what Christmas means? Cm Tell me what's the worth? Bb Singing peace on earth Ab Bb When there's war on the TV screen? Eb Oh, I'm still looking for Christmas Gm I get the feeling that I'm on my own Cm Is there a Christmas star Bb To show me where you are? Ab Bb 'Cause the Wiseman all forgot the way home
[Interlude]
| Eb | Gm | Eb | Gm |
[Verse]
Eb Well, it's halfway through December Gm The end of a long weird year Cm Bb As far back as I can remember Ab Bb The tension never felt this clear Eb Is this what my parents felt like? Gm Drinking bitter and sweet from the cup Cm Bb B Maybe this is what it feels like to grow up?
[Pre-Chorus]
Db B And all the carols are still the same Db Bb But maybe my ears are hearing different, somethings changed
[Chorus]
Eb Oh, I'm still looking for Christmas Gm Tell me how does Christmas work? Cm With our flags unfurled Bb Singing "Joy To The World" Ab Bb When there's so much pain and hurt Eb Oh, I'm still looking for Christmas Gm I get the feeling that I'm on my own Cm Is there a Christmas star Bb That could show me the way home?
[Interlude]
