    C-Am-F-G    C-Am-F-G       C                        F                           G

1.                                              Try to imagine a house that's not a home,

     C                           F                 G

    try to imagine a Christmas all alone.

                          C                       Am              F                                G

    That's where I'll be, since you left me my tears could melt the snow.

                    C          Am                         F                                G

    What can I do without you ?  I've got no place, no place to go.

 

           C                  Am                F               G

It'll be lonely this Christmas, without you to hold,

           C                Am           F                G

it'll be lonely this Christmas, lonely and cold.

            C          Am         F                G                C         - F- C- G

It'll be cold, so cold, without you to hold, this Christmas.

 

       C                                       F                      G

2. Each time I remember the day you went away,

C                                                  F                           G

    and how I would listen to the things you have to say.

                 C                     Am                            F                  G

    I just break down, as I look around and the only things I see,

            C                    Am                          F                       G

    are emptiness and loneliness, and an unlit Christmas tree. + CHORUS

 

             C                                                                    F                       -G

2.    (spoken:) You remember last year, when you and I were together.

C                                                              F                                        G

   We never thought there'd be an end, and I remember looking at you then.

                              C                                 Am

 And I remember thinking that Christmas must have been made for us,

F                      G                                                      C                       - Am

    'cos darlin',  this is the time that you really, you really need love.

                                   F                G                  C                 Am

    When it means so very, very much.  It'll be lonely this Christmas

            F                G               C                Am           F               G

    Without you to hold, it'll be lonely this Christmas, lonely and cold.

                                     C

+ CHORUS +Merry Christmas, darling, wherever you are!
