Splitting Up Christmas

Key: C

Introduction:

 C                                                           F 
So what if it's freezing, I'm awake and I'm happy
                               C                     G             F 
The sun's steepling its shards on my floor
 C                                                                     G 
I drag my feet to the shower and I hear someone singing
                           C                                                   F                         C 
I keep the lights off a while and the water gets warm
                     C                                         F 
Now I knot up my tie and toss books in a schoolbag
                 C               G                   F 
They keep my priorities straight
                             C                                                     G 
So I can sleepwalk through work like an outpatient program
 C                                             F                   C 
I don't buy but get through anyway
                       C                                                   F 
And at some point I'll call you and tell you I miss you
 C                             G                           F 
And you are the point of my day
                 C                                                         G 
And my face will get flushed and my throat will choke up
                     C                               F                 C 
When you tell me that you feel the same
         F                                               C 
So I have been thinking of splitting up Christmas
                 Am                 G                     F 
To see everyone I'd like to see
 F 
And you're first on that list
                       Dm 
You're the lotto I hit
 C                                             G                             C 
You're the star at the top of the tree
SOLO!!!!
 F                                                         C 
And I have been feeling this good for a reason
             Am             G         F 
My friends and my family
 F 
You all are my backbone
               Dm 
You keep me balanced and settled
         C                           G                                   C 
And I'm in debt to you all endlessly
 C                                                             F 
So tonight I will call you and try to say
                               C                   G                 F 
Thank you for being the sun on my face
                                 C                                         F 
I know the world's almost over but you make it seem better
                 C                   G                       C 
And I hope for you I do the same
