What do we are?
This is the last night of the tour.
[E] I'll do [N] one more song.

[B]
I'm going to do this song.
It's not much to do [N] with Christmas, but I love this song.
Also, it was written by a dear friend of mine.
I think [Gb] it's Ian.
Ian St.
John.
[E] I don't [Bbm] think you'll [C] forgive me
if I really bawl this [E] out.
I love this song.

[B]
[A] Sometimes I wish that I [Abm] could stop you [Gb] [Dbm]
[A] when I hear this silly tape,
[Abm] [Dbm]
[A] But maybe better to [Abm] turn out the [Db] big light,
[G] Because you just can't stop yourself from [B] saying,
