Intro: B5  F#5  E5

          B5              F#5
And I see forest Its the 25th of December
       E5
And my old man plays the piano for Christmas
             B5                   F#5   E5
He plays the piano for Christmas
          B5                  F#5
And we're all there, all the Aunties and Uncles
        E5
And the angel on top of the tree
            B5                   F#5  E5
Up there on top of the tree
      B5           F#5               E5
And I never, no I never ever realised
      B5           F#5               E5
And I never, no I never ever realised

*same*

Have I enough time  Have I just enough time

To revisit, to go back, to return

To open my mouth again

And say something different this time

And I see bags of newspaper and a car in the carport

and you're a grown up and still unsure

And I'm thirty and I don't know nothing anymore

And I never, no I never ever realised

And I never, no I never ever realised

*solo*
C#5   E5    B5

C#5   E5    B5

C#5   E5 (hold)
*same as other verses*

And I'm sitting, sitting at the top of the stairs

And you're crying out by the towpath but the river

With all the swans and people walking by

And all of a sudden I'm struck with an urge to

Unlock a door with a key thats too big for my hands

and I drop it and it falls at your feet

Come on, come on its there at your feet
      B5           F#5               E5
And I never, no I never ever realised


E5
Come on, come on its there at your feet
      B5           F#5
And I never, no I never ever realised
E5
Come on, come on its there at your feet
