I’ve been [C] running all my life I've been trying to get it right
Sentimental ain’t a thing I do [G] well
But it’s [G7] Christmas time again and I'm missin' all my friends
A million miles away, a [C] toast to their health.
Now, it’s a [C] shot out in the dark I'm just wishin' on a star
And I wish I knew [C7] just what to [F] do
Lord, I [C] think I need your light, on this cold and silent night,
I'm just [G] hanging on, it’s [G7] all that I can [C] do
[F] And all the [C] snow, fallin' [G7] down on the city and the [C] good souls below
[F] It ain’t the [C] same when it [G7] comes down and turns into [Am] rain
Cuz it’s [F] Christmas time, I can’t [G] be alone again
You’ve been [C] runnin through my mind, and no matter how I try
When the bells of old St. Pats start to [G] ring
And it’s so [G7] hard for me to hear, you're alone this time of year
And the bitterness that, that cold must [C] bring
And when your [C] sittin' in the dark and it's falling all apart
I’ll be lightin' up a [C7] candle for [F] you
I know it’s [C] sad to be alone I wish you joy and peace and hope
Wish you [G] all the love that [G7] your heart can [C] hold
[F] And all the [C] snow, fallin' [G7] down on the city and the [C] good souls below
[F] It ain’t the [C] same when it [G7] comes down and turns into [Am] rain
Cuz it’s [F] Christmas time, I can’t [G] be alone again
