[Intro]
Bm Em C G
[Verse 1]
Bm Em
Daylight is fadin', turn on the lights
C G
I'm drinkin' daily into the night
Bm Em
The radio's playin' that old song by Slade
C G
So I sit here blazin', memories we made
Bm
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm
[Chorus]
Em C
When the Christmas bells ring out, they don't sound
G Bm
Like they did every year you were here
Em C
When the mistletoe comes 'round, we don't kiss
G Bm
Like we did all the years you were here
Em C G
Mm, mm-hmm, mm-mm, mm-hmm, mm-mm, mm, mm-hmm
[Verse 2]
Bm Em
Everyone's prayin' this year it's white
C G
The radio's playin' thе same old tune

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm
[Chorus]
Em C
When the Christmas bells ring out, they don't sound
G Bm
Like they did every year you were here
Em C
When the mistletoe comes 'round, we don't kiss

[Bridge]
Bm Em
Snow filled globe, all around
C G
On the day that you left town
Bm Em C
Children sing in the streets
G D
Songs you used to sing to me
D7 C
Close my eyes until December ends
G D
And all of the whiskey has been drunk
D7 C
All the wrappin' paper has been torn
G D Cmaj7
Just like my heart when you left home
Bm
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm
[Chorus]

[Outro]
Em C G
Oh, oh, oh
Daylight is fading, turn on the lights
I'm drinking daily into the night
The radio's playing that old song by Slade
So I sit here blazing, memories we made
Mhm-mmm
When the Christmas bells ring out, they don't sound
Like they did every year you were here
When the mistletoe comes round, we don't kiss
Like we did all the years you were here
Mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm
Mhm
Everyone's praying this year it's white
Radio's playing the same old tune
Mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm
When the Christmas bells ring out, they don't sound
Like they did every year you were here
When the mistletoe comes round, we don't kiss
Like we did all the years you were here
Snow fell down all around
On the day that you left town
Children sing in the streets
Songs you used to sing to me
Close my eyes until December ends
And all of the whiskey has been drank
All the wrapping paper has been torn
Just like my heart when you left home
Mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm
When the Christmas bells ring out (the bells ring out)
They don't sound
Like they did every year you were here
When the mistletoe comes round (when it comes round)
We don't kiss
Like we did all the years you were here
When the Christmas bells ring out (the bells ring out)
They don't sound
Like they did every year you were here
When the mistletoe comes round (when it comes round)
We don't kiss
Like we did every year you were here
When the Christmas bells ring out (the bells ring out)
They don't sound
Like they did all the years that you were here
When the mistletoe comes round (when it comes round)
We don't kiss
Like we did all the years you were here
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah
