Friday it's the thirteenth 'til the twentyfourth it's not so long to go
Am                    G       Dm             Em          C
   tho' my face don't show my temperature is getting too low
C                G
I've seen it all in a dream
Am                      Em
   I know just how it's gonna feel alike
F                 G   Am
   not to be alive anymore

Am                 Em             F
tell me will you remember me that day
F                       G                       Am
when you've found a new one who's better than I ever was

I'll be dead by christmas now anyway
Am                 Em      F

F                        G                        Am
they will make christmas presents for you and for all my friends

Am            G                    Dm      Em                 Am
It hurts so inside to see you with another from the edge of a cloud
Am                       G                 Dm              Em              C
Whatever happened to the promises that you gave before the angels took me away.
C               G
So here I'm all dressed in white
Am                          Em
while you're drinkin' up my best friends wine
        F                        G                Am
and you   don't realize that I'm with you all the time.

Dm                             C
It's getting so lonely without you
Dm                   C      Am
and I'm sure - I am jealous too
| Am C |
Dm                      C
I see another man in my bed
Dm                                           E (Come up, come up)
be sure that I can get no rest before you're up here with me

Come up, come up, come up, come up, come up!

leave the flowers on my grave
F                  G          Am
sure a way you can join me anyday around honey
Am        C                       G    Am
You'll be dead this christmas now anyway
Am                Em                   F
you'll lay beside me in our family grave
F               G                   Am
we'll be making love eternally in a spiritual way

dead and gone.
Christmas is forever.
