[Bb] [Db] Stood [Eb] a lonely [F] cattle shed
[Bb] [F] [Bb]
[Fm] Where [Eb] a mother held [Bb] her [F] baby
[Bb]
[Bb] [Db] You'd do [F] well to remember the things she later said
[Db] When you're stubbing [Ab] yourself at [Eb] the Christmas [Bb] parties
You'll [Db] just laugh when I tell you [Eb] to [Bb] take a running jump
[Db] You're missing [Ab] the point, [Eb] I'm sure does not [Bb] mean
That
[Db] [Ab] Christmas spirit [Eb] is not what [Bb] you think
[Db] So how [Ab] can you laugh [Eb] when your own
[Bb] mother's hungry
And [Db] how [Ab] can you smile [Eb] when your reasons for [Bb] smiling are wrong
[Db] And if [Ab] I just messed up [Eb] your [Bb] thoughtless days
Just
[Db] remember if [Ab] you wish [Eb] this is just a [F] Christmas [Bb]
