David Ford - Have Yourself a Bitter Little Christmas
------------------------------
Key of F
------------------------------
VERSE 1:
C Cmaj7 Am
The kids are making snowmen out of mud
G F
It makes me think about us
C
Does that mean something?
F
I think it does
Em
But let's not talk about it
C Cmaj7 Am
Conversation only makes us weak
G F
Consequently we don't speak
C F
Not with conviction nor belief
C F
I know my head, I know my feet
Em G
And now they're pointing out the door
CHORUS:
F G C Cmaj7 Am G
And so I'm leaving you on Christmas day
F G C (Cmaj7) Am (G)
Forgive my timing but I simply have a mind to run away
F G C Cmaj7 Am
And I don't care what all the people say
G F G
I say peace and goodwill starts with getting the hell out of here
VERSE 2:
C Cmaj7 Am
Decorations sit and gather dust
G F
It makes me think about us
C
Does that mean something?
F
Yeah, I think it does
Em
But let's not talk about it
C Cmaj7 Am
Boxes of the shiny and the cheap
G F
With nothing permanent to keep
C F
Sit in high spirits for a month
C F
And when the sherry's all been drunk
Em G
There's nothing much that keeps me here
G C F
Oh my dear
CHORUS:
G C Cmaj7 Am G
I'm leaving you on Christmas day
F G C (Cmaj7) Am (G)
In truth, I think we never really liked each other anyway
F G C Cmaj7 Am
And I don't care what all the people say
G F G C
Cos I say peace and goodwill starts with getting the hell out of here, alive
VERSE 3:
C Cmaj7 Am
The house is cold, the boiler's packing up
G F
It makes me think about us
C
Does that mean something?
F
Yes, well I think it does
Em
But let's not dwell upon that
C Cmaj7 Am
They say outside it's minus 8 degrees
G F
I swear it ain't as cold as me
C F
I know there is no winter breeze
C F
To make your heart begin to freeze
Em G
I know it happened years ago
CHORUS:
F G C Cmaj7 Am G
And so, I'm leaving you on Christmas day
F G C (Cmaj7) Am (G)
In truth, I think we never really liked each other anyway
F G C Cmaj7 Am
And I don't care what all the people say
G F G (Em) C
Cos I say have yourself a bitter little Christmas and a twisted New Year
