VERSE 1
B
Came back from midnight shopping
E F#
Saw your shadow on the curtain
B
I presume you let yourself in
E F#
With the key you've yet to return
E
You ask me how I've been
B
And if I've seen much snow
E
Skillfully avoiding things
F#
That happened here a year ago
B
So, she's turned you out has she
E F#
Well, I can't say I'm surprised
B
After last year's festive fuss
E F#
I find it hard to sympathise
E
I slip through slush on Boxing Day
B
The shops were shut no films were on
E
You wander round to hers
F#
And left a note to say you'd gone
CHORUS
B
Stood by the fireplace
Abm
You look ridiculous
E
You can't just come and stay here
F#
Like you did last Christmas
B F#
You know what you did wrong
E F#
And Christmas, Christmas is cancelled this year

Treat in Christmas stockings (how shocking)
E
Don't take your jacket off
B
This is not your home
E
Just raise your glass to two more people
F#
Spending Christmas Day alone
CHORUS
B
Stood by the fireplace
Abm
You look ridiculous
E
You can't just come and stay here
F#
Like you did last Christmas
B F#
You know what you did wrong
E F#
And Christmas, Christmas is cancelled this year

MIDDLE 8
E
No Mum, don't worry about me
Em
I'll just have fish and chips for tea
F#
I'll watch the Queen and go to sleep
F#
I'll watch the Queen and go to sleep
