Chords

[Intro] A D A F#m A D E [Verse 1]
A
Christmas night, another fight

                        C#m
Tears were cried, a flood

A                                                   A
I've got all kinds of poison in, of poison in my blood

A
I took my feet to Oxford Street

A                    F#m A
Trying to right a wrong

 A
“Just walk away,” those windows say

A
But I can't believe she's gone
[Chorus 1]
D
When you're still waiting for the snow to fall

                            E
It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
[Instrumental] A D A D [Verse 2]
A                F#m                             D
Up above candles on they flicker, oh they flicker and they float

E    A                                              E
And I'm up here holding on to all those chandeliers of hope

        A      F#m                       D
And like some drunken Elvis singing, I go singing out of tune

        A                                          E
Saying how I always loved you darling and I always will
[Chorus 1]
E
And you're still waiting for the snow to fall

          D                 E
It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
Still waiting for the snow to fall
          D                  E
It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
[Chorus 2]
E     A         A
Those Christmas lights
Light up the street
                D            A
Down where the sea and city meet

              D              E
May all your troubles soon be gone

F#m           A      E    A
Oh Christmas lights keep shining on
[Chorus]
A
Those

E
Christmas

A
Lights

A
Light up the street

A              D                A
Maybe they'll bring her back to me

                D                F#m
And then all my troubles will be gone

              A     E            A
Oh Christmas lights keep shining on
[Instrumental] E A D A D F#m A E A [Bridge]
A         E    A
Oh Christmas lights

A
Light up the street

              D           A
Light up the fireworks in me
[Outro]
               D              F#m
May all your troubles soon be gone

F#m                  A  Bm   A
Those Christmas lights keep shining on
[Instrumental] A G#m B Bm A D
