Slow As Christmas Cifras

[Chorus]
          D       A
You're as slow as Christmas
      D    E        A
I was up before the dawn
D     E      A
Up so fast I missed it
       D
Or was that old saying wrong?
D               A
Every Christmas Day makes
      D              A
Every other day seem long
     D            E     A
What seemed would never get here
       D                A
Has so quickly come and gone
 
[Verse 1]
     F#m                E
I've heard old sayings, old cliches
    D                 A
And most of them make sense
          D            A
But we're wiser in our younger days
    B7        E
Not easily convinced
F#m               E
There's no way to look ahead
         D              A
With the wool over your eyes
       D                  A
And it seems that Santa's sled
          D    E          A
Isn't the only thing that flies
 
[Chorus]
          D       A
You're as slow as Christmas
      D    E        A
I was up before the dawn
D     E      A
Up so fast I missed it
       D
Or was that old saying wrong?
D               A
Every Christmas Day makes
      D              A
Every other day seem long
     D            E     A
What seemed would never get here
       D                A
Has so quickly come and gone
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
 
      F#m           E
We're bringing in another year
      D                 A
Let's throw the old one back
        D                      A
With my new train, I'll be the engineer
    B7             E
And hurry down the track
        F#m               E
While I know that time is standing still
  D                A
I hear that old cliche
        D                 A
And I'm more convinced it does until
     D      E     A
That one December day
 
[Chorus]
            D       A
When I'm as slow as Christmas
        D    E        A
I'll be up before the dawn
D       E     A
I'm not gonna miss this
       D
I know that old saying's wrong
D               A
Every Christmas Day makes
      D              A
Every other day seem long
     D            E     A
What seemed would never get here
       D                A
Has so quickly come and gone
D        A
Come and gone...
