1. vers

Eb
⁠Careful what you
Ab/Eb
⁠say

this time of year
Bb/Eb

Tends to
Ab/Eb
⁠weaken me

And
Eb
⁠have a little
Ab/Eb
⁠decency

And
Bb/Eb
⁠let me cry in
Ab/Eb
⁠peace

But
Eb
⁠there's a place where
Ab/Eb
⁠I

Erase the
Bb/Eb
⁠challenges I've
Ab/Eb
⁠been through

Where
Eb
⁠I know every
Ab/Eb
⁠corner,

Every
Bb/Eb
⁠street name all by
Ab
⁠heart

Del B1


And
Ab
⁠so it is a
Eb/G
⁠part of my

Cour
Fm7
⁠ageous plan to
Bbsus4
⁠leave
Bb
Ab
⁠With a broken
Eb/G
⁠heart

Tucked a
Fsus4
⁠way un
F
⁠der my
Bbsus4
⁠sleeve
Bb

Ref


I wanna go
Eb/G
⁠home for
Ab2
⁠Christmas

Let me go
Bb
⁠home
Bdim
⁠this
Cm7
⁠year

I wanna go
Eb/G
⁠home for
Ab
⁠Christmas

Let me go
Bbsus4
⁠home

2. vers


I'll
Eb
⁠pack my bags

And
Ab/Eb
⁠leave before the
Bb/Eb
⁠sun rises to
Ab/Eb
⁠morrow

'Cause
Eb
⁠we act more like
Ab/Eb
⁠strangers for each
Bb/Eb
⁠day

That I am
Ab/Eb
⁠here

But
Eb
⁠I have people
Ab/Eb
⁠close to me

Who
Bb/Eb
⁠never will de
Ab/Eb
⁠sert me
Eb
⁠Who remind me
Ab/Eb
⁠frequently

What I
Bb/Eb
⁠was like as a
Ab/Eb
⁠child

Del B2


And
Ab
⁠so it is a
Eb/G
⁠part of my

Cour

3. vers


I
Eb
⁠don't know what my
Ab/Eb
⁠future holds

Or
Bb/Eb
⁠who I'll choose to
Ab/Eb
⁠love me

But
Eb
⁠I can tell you
Ab/Eb
⁠where I'm from

And
Bb/Eb
⁠who loved me to
Ab/Eb
⁠life
