G Em C D
Each time I re - member the day you went away,
G Em C D
I wouldn't listen to what you had to say,
G Em C D
I just breakdown, as I look around, the only things I see,
G Em C D
Are emptiness, and loneliness, an unlit Christmas tree!
G Em C D
It'll be lonely this Christmas with - out you to hold,
G Em C D
It'll be lonely this Christmas, lonely and cold,
G Em C D
It'll be cold, so----- cold, with - out you to hold,
G
This Christmas! C G D

G
Very much! Em C D
