  			Verse:
 
G 
I'm normally one with the holiday spirit 
C 
soon as December arrives 
Em 
but the snow's coming down, and all i'm thinking about 
F 
is the night that we said our goodbyes 

G 
i drive past the lights for miles and miles 
C 
red and silver and green 
        Em 
and they're just fine, but the blue of your eyes 
        F 
could outshine the entire scene 

 
G                       C 
tis the season to be merry 
                        Em 
and give tidings, ho ho ho 
                        D 
but i'm having trouble dealing 

with my own pathetic woes 
G                       C 
tis the season, or whatever 
                        Em 
i don't really give a fuck 
                        D 
am i angry? am i sad? 
        N.C. 
either way, December sucks

Verse 
G 
I've read every story, i've sung every song 
C 
i even tried trimming a tree 
Em 
but nothing can get all your words from my head 
F 
try as i might, they're stuck with me 

G 
so i've spiked my own eggnog, i'm done trying to cope 
C 
i'm letting it all just fade out 
Em 
and if i see you at a single party 
F 
i swear to god i think i'll shout 

(damn you, Mariah Carey!!!!)
