Twang - On The 24Th Chords

[Intro]
C        C
 
[Verse 1]
       C       Em                       F                 C
On the 24-th I planned my course in the last month of the year.
     C                           Em                   F             C
As I drove through the rain that should be snow, it’s going home, I fear.
       C                    Em                F               C
But it makes no sense cause going back is the safest thing to do.
       C               Em          F                C
As the ice in my glass rattles the lights come into view.
 
[Chorus]
         F                   C                  Am       G          F
And this tavern is full of familiar faces, they all must think like me.
        F                          C
And the depths that we plunder, it does make me wonder:
Am G  C     G F     F    Am        G       F         F
do we still believe   in Christmas time at all?
 
[Verse 2]
           C             Em         F               C
Guess I’ve always been a sucker for drinking on the eve
        C             Em          F                  C
and I’m feeling kinda guilty as I know that I should leave.
        C              Em          F                C
Well, I like to talk tequila but I like to drink it more,
    C                   Em                   F           C
you know if I could I’d buy you the world if I wasn’t so poor.
 
[Chorus]
         F                   C                  Am       G          F
And this tavern is full of familiar faces, they all must think like me.
        F                          C
And the depths that we plunder, it does make me wonder:
Am G  C     G F     F    Am        G       F         F
do we still believe   in Christmas time at all?
Am  G   F     F      F
And   believe when I say
       Am       G          F         F
that I love you all of the year,
Am G                F        ( F )
al-ways, not just today.
 
[Interlude]
C        Em        F        C
C        Em        F        C
Em       F         C
C        Em        F        C
 
[Verse 3]
        C                Em                    F              C
Yeah, I understand, it's tough on you but it’s tough on me as well.
     C                        Em         F           C
And sometimes you resent your situation, baby, I can tell.
      C                   Em      F                      C
And I know you think that I don’t try but trying’s all I do,
          C              Em              F                 C
but right now I’m trying to forget but I haven’t forgotten you.
 
[End-Chorus]
         F                   C                  Am       G          F
And this tavern is full of familiar faces, they all must think like me.
       F                         C
And my heart starts to sink as I ponder and think:
Am G  C     G F     F    Am        G       F         F
do we still believe   in Christmas time at all?
Am  G   F            F
And   believe when I say
       Am       G          F         F
that I love you all of the year,
Am G                F        ( F )
al-ways, not just today,
Am G                F
al-ways, not just today.
