I know for a fact that this isn't completely right. I'm positive, however, that the
capo and intro is correct. Maybe the next time they're in town I can ask Justin to teach me
song.
But this is a pretty basic song; the only thing I can't figure out is the bridge.
Play it with acoustic guitar with some friends around a Christmas tree, it shall be good times.
I'm open to corrections and if any one can find out the bridge it would help a lot!
Artist: Brighten (featuring The Maine)
Song: Merry Christmas Baby
Half Step down tuning
Capo on 2
(tip for intro: pluck the 2, slide to the 4, and slide back up to the 2 and pluck that
do not pluck the 4, just slide to it and back up.)

Oh winter, winter couldn't come quicker.
G Cadd9
Hope she got the card that I sent her,
G Cadd9
A free ticket to my doorstep.
G Cadd9
I'm a worried man, no I haven't slept.
G Cadd9
I’m writing her and mister Santa Claus,
G Cadd9
Hoping he could maybe make some calls,
G Cadd9
'cause she's out of this world, bring it back to me.
G Cadd9
'cause it's Christmas and this is where she needs to be.

G Cadd9
In love again, 'cause it's the season

For us to be together, us to be together again.
G Cadd9
By the fire with some mistletoe,
G Cadd9
Change quick into my Christmas robe.
G Cadd9
Take a walk and we could watch the lights,
G Cadd9
I’m not cold when you're by my side.
Cadd9 G Cadd9
The sleigh bells on my roof keep me up all

Night, but it doesn't mean a
Cadd9 G
Thing, 'cause you're here to see it,
G Cadd9
It just means Santa’s here for Christmas.

(Bridge plucking unknown)
We’ve got some time alone tonight, it's just us two.
It got a little lonely sometimes,
Then the rest the year's with you.
We’ve got some time alone, yeah; tonight it's just us two.
You got to be lonely sometime,
And then the rest the year's with you.
Everybody!
