        E                         A 
I spent all of Christmas Eve fake angry at you for  
E                     A            E             
Who knows what now or then and you spoke so fast  
  A             E                        A 
I just sat back relaxed and took you all in  

        E                                  A 
I spent all of Christmas Eve trying to get warmer 
                           E                                                     
After standing outside for hours knowing at this point   
       A                 
I’d be lucky to get any sleep  

 E                                     A 
And I’ll toss and turn until the early morning  
        E 
Happily ignoring that my blue jeans  
            A 
Didn’t do a fucking thing for me  
Against this cold  

E                                          A 
Sober or not, I locked everything you sent me  
                         E 
Cause what’s better than seeing 
         A  
What I’m missing daily  
I guess what I’m trying to say is that  

E   E     E           A A     A 
You might run, oh but I won’t hide 
        E     E  E 
Shed an ounce of light  
           A   A    A 
On my half-hopeless life  
Don’t let me go back  

                       E 
And though I’d like to say more 
                            A 
I guess, I’ll just duck and cover 
                        E  
Almost praying that you trip over 
                                A  
The cluster of words I laid out before having to leave  

                 E               
But since you’ve taken the time to read so carefully  
A 
Everything I’ve ever sent  
             E 
I guess I’ll spend the next few lines  
           A 
Hoping and wishing  
Yet thanking appropriately  

E   E     E           A A     A 
You might run, oh but I won’t hide 
        E     E  E 
Shed an ounce of light  
           A   A    A 
On my half-hopeless life  
Don’t let me go back  

E   E     E           A A     A 
You might run, oh but I won’t hide 
        E     E  E 
Shed an ounce of light  
           A   A    A 
On my half-hopeless life  
Don’t let me go back  

      E              A 
To Erin: Please read later 
                      E  
Cause I don’t think I have the heart  
                     A 
To let you read this now 
                 E 
But if I had the heart  
                     A 
You know that I know better 
                       E              A 
This isn’t how you say aloud, you say aloud     x2  

E   E     E           A A     A 
You might run, oh but I won’t hide 
        E     E  E 
Shed an ounce of light  
           A   A    A 
On my half-hopeless life  
Don’t let me go back      (Guitar 2 Plays this during the second loop of the previous verse, To Erin…)
