Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

Baltimore's quiet and cold, there's no ship in the bay

To take me back home in time for the holiday

Oh December never ends

If you'd come here instead, I've got gifts and food and friends

Plenty of room in my bed

Only you can help me mend

Refrain

So here's to being alone, to anyone on that road, if anyone's listening

Will think of me when I'm gone, it's not gonna hurt for long

So you can just forget

And I can't live without regret

Bridge

When I return to you at last

Surprise me in red and black

Oh no you never ever give in, never give in

In your smile, there's a certain lack

A muscle strain from front to back

So I'll do anything to get me right back home
