       F#                 B           F#
I am writing a letter to say I still care
     B             F#            C#7
A I wish you were here, it's Christmas
          F#
And it's way past the late mass
     B         F#
I'm saying a prayer
       B          F#           C#7
I can picture you here last Christmas

A#7                        B
I know you're so far from home
                                F#
But you know that you're never alone
A#7                    B
I know you're so far away
                                     C#7
Till your home safe again I'll just pray

Chorus:
F#  E       B        F#
Oh, it's Christmas again
C#m7    B          F#
But it won't be without you
F#    E      B       F#
Oh, it's Christmas again
C#m7    B        F#
I'm so lonely without you

I'm turning my collar to the cold and the wind
Till you're home safe again and it's Christmas
And we're saving your present, it's under the tree
When you're with me, you'll see it's Christmas

I know you're so far away
But you know that I still feel the same
I know you're so far from home
But no matter how far, you're never alone

Chorus:
Oh, it's Christmas again
But it won't be without you
Oh, it's Christmas again
I'm so lonely without you
I'm so lonely without you
I'm so lonely without you
