1. Verse
Play Intro 2x
Noone here, noone there
I see desolation everywhere
Just run out of tears to cry
Its getting colder every day
In this god forgotten world I pray
As I look up to the sky
Bridge:
Cadd9 D G
Is there something I can do?
Cadd9 D G
To give back hope to this horizon
Cadd9 D Em7 G Cadd9
I close my eyes, as if it would stop the rain on me.
Cadd9
I can't get my fears away
D
With those words I hear you say
Refrain:
Em7 Cadd9 G
Wish you all a merry Christmas
(G/F#)Em7 Cadd9 G
Wish you all a great New Year

Hope you save a thought for something that is true
Cadd9 D G
I wish a merry Christmas to you!
Play Intro 2x (Or: G - D - Em7 - D - Cadd9 - Em7-Cadd9-D)
Greeting cards, that you read
You got everything you really need
In your world of red n' white
Flying high right to the sun
But the sparkle in your eyes has gone
It's so easy to forget
Bridge:
Cadd9 D G
Is there something I can do? (is there something i can do)
Cadd9 D G
I don't wanna weep in silence (I don't wanna weep in silence)
Cadd9 D
There's no such blindman
Em7 G Cadd9
When you just don't want to see
Cadd9
But I can't ease my pain today
D
With those word I hear you say

Wish you all a merry Christmas
