Chorus:
 D
Last Christmas I gave you my heart,
         Bm
But the very next day you gave it away.
 Em
This year to save me from tears
      A
I’ll give it
To someone special. - x2

D
Once bitten and twice shy
Bm
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye,
Em
Tell me, baby, do you recognize me?
A
Well, it’s been a year,

It doesn’t surprise me.

D
(Happy Christmas!) I wrapped it up and sent it
Bm
With a note saying, “I love you,” I meant it.
Em
Now, I know what a fool I’ve been,
            A
But if you kissed me now
I know you’d fool me again.

Chorus - x2

D
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes,
Bm
I’m hiding from you and your soul of ice.
Em
My God! I thought you were someone to rely on.
A
Me? I guess I was
A shoulder to cry on.

   D
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart,
  Bm                                Em
A man under cover but you tore me apart.
Ooh, hoo…
           A
Now I’ve found a real love

You’ll never fool me again.

Chorus - x2

        D
     A face on a lover with a fire in his heart,
        Bm
     A man under cover but you tore me apart.
   Em                       A
     Maybe next year I’ll give it to someone,
                                D
     I’ll give it to someone special.
