Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Chorus

Last Christmas I gave you my heart

But the very next day- you gave it away.

This year to save me from tears

I'll give it to someone special.

Once bitten and twice shy

I keep my distance but you still catch my eye

Tell me baby, do you recognize me

Well, its been a year it doesn't surprise me

Merry Christmas, I wrapped it up and sent it

With a note saying I love you- I meant it

Now i know what a fool I've been

But if you kiss me now, I know you'll fool me again

Repeat Chorus twice

A crowded room and friends with tired eyes.

I'm hiding from you and your sold up eyes.

My God I thought you were someone to rely on

Me i guess I was a shoulder to cry on.

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart

A girl under cover but you tore her apart.

Maybe this year maybe this year

I'll give it to someone special.

Repeat chorus twice

And last Christmas

[No words]

and this year

won't be anything like anything like

Repeat Chorus

End on D
