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
