[Verse 1]
C Em F C
On the 24-th I planned my course in the last month of the year.
C Em F C
As I drove through the rain that should be snow, it’s going home, I fear.
C Em F C
But it makes no sense cause going back is the safest thing to do.
C Em F C
As the ice in my glass rattles the lights come into view.
[Chorus]
F C Am G F
And this tavern is full of familiar faces, they all must think like me.
F C
And the depths that we plunder, it does make me wonder:
Am G C G F F Am G F F
do we still believe in Christmas time at all?
[Verse 2]
C Em F C
Guess I’ve always been a sucker for drinking on the eve
C Em F C
and I’m feeling kinda guilty as I know that I should leave.
C Em F C
Well, I like to talk tequila but I like to drink it more,
C Em F C
you know if I could I’d buy you the world if I wasn’t so poor.
[Chorus]
F C Am G F
And this tavern is full of familiar faces, they all must think like me.
F C
And the depths that we plunder, it does make me wonder:
Am G C G F F Am G F F
do we still believe in Christmas time at all?
Am G F F F
And believe when I say
Am G F F
that I love you all of the year,
Am G F ( F )
al-ways, not just today.
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
C Em F C
Yeah, I understand, it's tough on you but it’s tough on me as well.
C Em F C
And sometimes you resent your situation, baby, I can tell.
C Em F C
And I know you think that I don’t try but trying’s all I do,
C Em F C
but right now I’m trying to forget but I haven’t forgotten you.
[End-Chorus]
F C Am G F
And this tavern is full of familiar faces, they all must think like me.
F C
And my heart starts to sink as I ponder and think:
Am G C G F F Am G F F
do we still believe in Christmas time at all?
Am G F F
And believe when I say
Am G F F
that I love you all of the year,
Am G F ( F )
al-ways, not just today,
Am G F
al-ways, not just today.
