[F#m]
[A] [D]
[A] I don't know [F#m] how love [D] could do this [E] to me.
[A] I've waited [F#m] and waited for [D] someone I [E] never see.
[G#] But I'm so [C#] sentimental and I'm [F#m] so hopeful you'll be here.
So here [D] I am every [E] year, every [A] Christmas.
[B]
[A] [D]
[E] Yes, [F#m] I've wished for you [D] in my heart and [E] in my head.
[A] And I've got my answer that [D] first moment [E] that we met.
[G#] And oh yes, I [C#] believe you as [F#m] you told me, as you said.
You'd [D] be here [E] every year, [A] every Christmas.
[B]
[A]
[D] There must be a lesson
[Dm] for me to learn.
If [A] you don't trust [F#m] in love, you'll [C#m] get nothing in return.
[D] Why should I?
[A] [Dm] Don't tell me.
[B]
But [Bm] I'd rather be with you.
[E]
Ah, [A]
so much [F#m] emotion [D] is driving [E] me mad.
Yeah, [A] but I'll take [F#m] my chances with [D] these feelings [E] that I have.
[E] [G#] And I'll come [C#] back to this [F#m] same corner where we met.
And [D] I'll be here [E] every year, [A] every Christmas.
[B] [A]
[D] Mirror, can you
[Dm] see the pain in me?
Cause [A] I wonder, yeah, [F#m] yes, I wonder.
Are [C#m] you gonna leave me standing here?
[D]
Today's almost over,
[Dm] but I don't want to pass [B] my heart.
Native fools, [Bm]
[E]
my [A]
friends [F#m] gather round me [D] with holiday [E] cheer.
[A] Yeah, they say to [F#m] forget you, to [D] let you go.
[E] You're not here.
[C#] Well, I [C#] can't keep explaining what [F#m] they'll never understand.
And [D] while I'm here
[A] [E] every year, [A] every Christmas,
[B] I return [E] every year, [A] every Christmas.
I come [D] here every [E]
year, every Christmas.
