Christmas Time Tab

Christmastime/Michael Penn & Aimee Mann


one of the toughest chord patterns I've ever tried
I hope this is all correct, I welcome any thoughts, there is a lot of orchestration 
that obscures the root note but there is acoustic guitar throughout. I think
this accompaniment works well, with the recording or solo.

Intro:     

                             
Its Christmas again, December is here 
                    
Hasn't it been a wonderful year?
                                                
For the plans you're making, all the time you're taking
                            
Greet the next one with good cheer
                           
Won't you dear, as you ring the chime
                           
Just because its Christmastime
                                 +  
And on the tree all the ornaments glow
                                          
Tinsel will cover where the branches don't grow
                        
There's lights on all the houses
                 
Spouses with their spouses
                       
Children playing in the snow
                              +  
One in the swing and one upon the horse
                                        
Keeping on tracks another matter of course
                                   
Thats the great divisor you are now the wiser
                     
Maybe just a bit less so
                         
Touch and go til you stop on a dime
              
All alone at Christmastime

        

                             +  
Its Christmas again, December is here 
                                
What did you wish for what did you fear
                                  
Look at your behaviour looking for a saviour
                  
Underneath the mistletoe
                   
You should know it is less a crime
                     
To be all alone at Christmastime
    
Christmastime
    
Christmastime

     [repeat]
