All Alone On Christmas Tab

by Darlene Love


Okay, not one of the most well-known Xmas tunes, but I've known it for years, cos it's 
Home Alone 2, and it's great.

Anyway, a strum pattern like this works really well,

VERSE

[]
The cold wind is blowin' and the streets are getting dark
[]
I'm writing you a letter and I don't know where to start
[]
The bells will be ringing Saint John the Divine
[]
I get a little lonely every year around this time

[]
The music plays all night in Little Italy
[]
The lights will be going up on old Rockefella's tree
[]
People window shopping on Fifth Avenue
[]
All I want for Christmas is you


CHORUS

[]
(Tell me) I've got to know
                       []
Where do lonely hearts go
        []               []           []
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas


The verse and chorus sections are repeated before the interlude, which is...


INTERLUDE

[]
I'm all grown up but I'm the same you'll see
[]
I'm writing this letter 'cause I still believe
[]
Dear Santa I've been good this year
[]
Can't you stay a little while with me right here


Sexy Sax solo over the verse, then back to the chorus.


Easy peasy eh?
