It Doesnt Have To Be That Way

Key: C

Introduction:

 C             C7M                       C6         C 
    Snowy nights and Christmas lights,
 F         Em                     Dm7     G7 
    Icy window panes,
 C                 C7M         C6             C       D7 
    Make me wish that we could be
 D7                         G7 
    Together again
                     C         C7M   C6   C 
    And the windy winter avenues
 F                       Em                   Dm7 
    Just don't seem the same,
 G7               C                 C7M   C6                 C 
    And the Christmas carols sound like blues,
                     F               G7               C 
    But the choir is not to blame
 G7         C                             F                 Em 
But it doesn't have to be that way
 F                 Em                 F   Em  F       Em  C 
    What we had should never have ended
                                     F         Em 
I'll be dropping by today

   Dm  C   D7 
  'Cause we could easily get it together tonight
 G7                         C                     G7 
    It's only right
 C                 C7M             C6               C 
    Crowded stores, the corner Santa Claus,
 F                   Em                       G7 
    Tinseled afternoons,
                     C               C7M           C6                     C           D7 
    And the sidewalk bands that play their songs
                                           G7 
    Slightly out of tune
                   C           C7M  C6   C 
    On the windy winter avenues
 F                             Em               Dm7         G7 
    There walks a lonely man,
             C       C7M       C6           C 
    And if I told you who he is,
                   F                     G7             C 
    Well I think you'd understand
