Aint No Time Of Year To Be Alone

C  G  C  G  C  G

[Verse 1]
      C
Saint Nick fell down the chimney right on cue
                                        G
With a big ole' bag of gifts for me and you
      F                                               D
I was crying by the Christmas tree with a bottle of Patron
                                  C
This ain't no time of year to be alone


[Verse 2]

He said, 'You look like hell, boy where's your better half?'
                                                   G
I said, 'She's gone and I don't think she's coming back'
                   F                                               D
'Did she have some last minute shopping, that just couldn't be postponed?'
                                  C
This ain't no time of year to be alone


[Chorus]
            F
Well, I got just one wish
      Am
On my Christmas list
   Dm          G             C
Oh baby, how I wish you were here
       F
I want chestnuts roasting, good friends toasting
C
Health and happiness
       D7                             G
But it won't mean a thing without you here


[Verse 3]
          C
He said, 'Christmas without love and tenderness
                                      G
Well, that's just a hollow holiday at best
              F                                  D
Son, it takes two to tango underneath that mistletoe
                                  C
This ain't no time of year to be alone'


[Lead Break]


[Chorus]
          F
Oh, I got just one wish
      Am
On my Christmas list
         Dm          G                  C
I'd give anything to have you here with me
       F
I want Yule logs, reindeer, eggnog, good cheer
C
Five golden rings
    D7                          G
Not Kris Kringle's singles therapy


[Verse 4]
   C
So me and old Saint Nick kicked back a few
                                               G
And we both agreed, he ain't no substitute for you
      F                                                        D
And I heard him say, as he pulled his sleigh back out into the cold
                                   C
'This ain't no time of year to be alone'
                                           C
'Ho, ho, this ain't no time of year to be alone'
