Aint No Time Of Year To Be Alone Chords & Lyrics - Mark Erelli

CAPO: 4th Fret

[INTRO]
[C] [G] [C] [G] [C] [G]

[VERSE 1]
Saint [C]Nick fell down the chimney right on cue
With a big ole' bag of gifts for me and [G]you
I was [F]crying by the Christmas tree with a bottle of Pa[D]tron
This ain't no time of year to be a[C]lone

[VERSE 2]

He said, 'You look like hell, boy where's your better half?'
I said, 'She's gone and I don't think she's coming [G]back'
'Did she have some [F]last minute shopping, that just couldn't be post[D]poned?'
This ain't no time of year to be a[C]lone

[CHORUS]
Well, I got [F]just one wish
On my [Am]Christmas list
Oh [Dm]baby, how I [G]wish you were [C]here
I want [F]chestnuts roasting, good friends toasting
[C]Health and happiness
But it [D7]won't mean a thing without you [G]here

[VERSE 3]
He said, '[C]Christmas without love and tenderness
Well, that's just a hollow holiday at [G]best
Son, it takes [F]two to tango underneath that mistle[D]toe
This ain't no time of year to be a[C]lone'

[Lead Break]

[CHORUS]
Oh, I got [F]just one wish
On my [Am]Christmas list
I'd give [Dm]anything to [G]have you here with [C]me
I want [F]Yule logs, reindeer, eggnog, good cheer
[C]Five golden rings
Not [D7]Kris Kringle's singles thera[G]py

[VERSE 4]
So [C]me and old Saint Nick kicked back a few
And we both agreed, he ain't no substitute for [G]you
And I [F]heard him say, as he pulled his sleigh back out into the [D]cold
'This ain't no time of year to be a[C]lone'
'Ho, ho, this ain't no time of year to be a[C]lone'
