Just realised I should have uploaded this under Pells instead of samples. The preview (with guitar) is here

Apologies for the strange formatting of the chords below
I’ve left space for a lead solo if someone would like to add one

C
When I was a little girl
Em
We had a silver tinsel tree
Am
December brought the winter snow
F
And a sister born on Christmas Eve
Dm
But seasons change
Am7
And nothing stays the same
Dm
We lose the ones we love
Em
Then ‘Christmas’ is an empty name
C
There was a time
Em
when I had a little faith
Am
And the advent calendar gave
F
me a hopeful thrill
C
Or that time
Em
children collecting straw
Am
To fill a makeshift manger
F
for a baby doll

Dm
But seasons change
Am7
December brings the searing sun
Dm
We lose the ones we love
Em
‘Christmas’ is an empty name

C, Em, Am, F x 2

C Em
And the sister born on Christmas Eve
Passed away on Christmas Day
Am
that ghastly music playing in all the stores
F
makes me miss her more

Dm
Seasons change
Am7
but there’s a push to celebrate
Dm
Nothing ever stays the same
Am7
the tinsel tree was thrown away

Em Am
We see that ‘Christmas’ always was an empty name
E Am
Now it’s just a holiday and bittersweet
E Am
Christmas is a quiet day at home

Dm
I strum my guitar
Am7
eat my lunch out by the pond
Dm Em
Grateful for the bees and dragonflies, the gentle breeze
E Am
Their visual, their aural harmonies
E Am
a gift of grateful song
E Am
To accompany me and alleviate

E Am
the sense that Christmas feels so wrong.
