[Intro]
G Dm F C x2
[Verse 1]
G Dm
In the world that you would make up
F C
With unicorns and buffalo backs
G Dm
I know that you would wake up
F C
With the sunny side touching your back
[Chorus]
G Dm
Is it the lonely man of Christmas?
F C
Coming up with theories on him
G Dm
Is it the lonely man of Christmas?
F C
He\’s riding in the devil\’s abyss
[Verse 2]
Em Dm
Oh, I would rate the future
F Am
If I could put a finger on it
Em Dm
But I have no idea
F Am
If what I want is better than this
[Chorus]
Em Dm
Is it the lonely man of winter?
F Am
I could put my finger on that
Em Dm
Is it the lonely drive to Denver?
F C
The loneliness of Hoppington\’s hat
[Instrumental]
G Dm F C
Em Dm F C
[Chorus]
G Dm
Is it the time we spent in silence?
F C
The silence of a winter we had
Em Dm
Is it the lonely man of winter?
F C
I could put my finger on that
[Verse 3]
Em Dm
And even if it\’s Christmas
F Am
Could we just pretend for a bit
Em Dm
That everything we went through
F Am
Was someone else\’s carpenter kiss
[Outro]
