Another Lonely Christmas

B      G#m    D#7                    F#
  Last night, I spent another lonely Christmas
E                     G
Darling, darling, you should've been there
F#
'Cause all the ones I dream about
G
You are the one that makes my love shout
     G#m7        F#         E    B
See, you are the only one I care for

[Verse 1]
E                                D#m7
 Remember the time we swam naked in your father's pool?
B                                F#                    B
Boy, he was upset that night but boy, was that ever cool
E
Remember the night we played pokeno for money
B                   F#
And you robbed me blind
B
Remember how you used to scream so loud
           E                 B
'Cause you hated the number nine

[Verse 2]
E                                          F#7
Hey, I saw your sister skating on the lake this afternoon
B
Good Heaven, how she's grown
B
She swooned the boy skaters, she is so tall
       E
But of all your father's children
                            F#
All your father's children, baby
              B
You know, you are the finest of them all
B
You are brighter than the northern star

[Chorus]
B                                        F#
Last night, I spent another lonely Christmas
E        B        G
Darling, darling, you should've been there
       F#
'Cause all the ones I dream about
G
You are the one that makes my love shout
         G#m7        F#         E    B
You see, you are the only one I care for

[Verse 3]
E                       D#m
 My mammy used to say, "Always trust your lover."
B                                   E B
Now I guess that only applies to her
E
Cause baby you promised me
D#m7                             F#
Baby you promised me you'd never leave
B                                        E B
Then you died on the 25th day of December, oh baby

[Chorus]
B               D#m             F#                   E
Last night, oh, I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
                   G
Darling, baby, you should've been there
F#
'Cause all the ones I dream about
B
You are the one that makes my love shout
         G#m G       F#  F      E     B
You see, you are the only one I care for, yeah

[Bridge]
E
 Your father said it was pneumonia
E
Your mother said it was stress
    B
But the doctor said you were dead and I
B
I say its senseless
A
Every Christmas night for seven years now
E                                 B
I drink banana daiquiris 'til I'm blind
B
As long as I can hear you smilin' baby
B
You won't hear my tears, another lonely Christmas is mine
B
Yeah, mine, yeah
B
Another lonely Christmas is mine

Last night, yeah, I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
                  G
Darling, darling, you should've been there
F#
'Cause all the ones I dream about
        A                  B
You are the one that makes my love shout
