Christmas Time Is Not The Same by John McDermott


         Christmas Time Is Not The Same 



Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:F
Capo:5th fret

[Verse 1]
C
Every year I make a list
F                     G
Check it twice, don’t want to miss
C
My family and friends I’ve known
F                    G
Come back to me like falling snow
    C    G       F                                      G
And as I put the pen to page and think of your familiar face
             C             F          G
And what I’d give, just to write your name
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Christmas time is not the same
C                           G
When I was a kid, it was my favourite day
C
Now hurts to love and it hurts to give
C                   G
Knowing we’re gonna lose each other
          F          G          C
But maybe that’s what makes it a gift
 
 
[Verse 2]
C
I can see that child again
F               G                C
Waking up their mother and their father
        F                          G
Asking “can I please open one gift early”
    C    G         F                                      G
And as I watch the spell get broken long before the sun’s awoken
       C                       F          G
Wish I could say, you're gonna miss these days
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Christmas time is not the same
C                           G
When I was a kid, it was my favourite day
C
Now hurts to love and it hurts to give
C                   G
Knowing we’re gonna lose each other
          F          G
But maybe that’s what makes it
 
[Bridge]
    F           G            C
And I still can hear all the songs and the games
     F              G                                   C
When you still were here and I could just call out your name
C/A
And say:
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Christmas time is not the same
C                           G
When I was a kid, it was my favourite day
C
Now hurts to love and it hurts to give
C                   G
Knowing we’re gonna lose each other
          F          G
But maybe that’s what makes it
 
 
[[Chorus]
C
Christmas time is not the same
C                           G
When I was a kid, it was my favourite day
C
Now hurts to love and it hurts to give
C                   G
Knowing we’re gonna lose each other
          F          G           C
But maybe that’s what makes it a gift
