VERSE
D                                      D
Baltimore's quiet and cold, there's no ship in the bay
                        G
To take me back home in time for the holiday
     A
Oh December never ends
   D
If you'd come here instead, I've got gifts and food and friends
          G
Plenty of room in my bed
     A
Only you can help me mend 


REFRAIN
   Bm              G                D             D/C#
So here's to being alone, to anyone on that road, if anyone's listening
     Bm                   G                    D       
Will think of me when I'm gone, it's not gonna hurt for long 
   D/C#            G
So you can just forget
            A
And I can't live without regret


BRIDGE
G
When I return to you at last
Bm
Surprise me in red and black
A               D
Oh no you never ever give in, never give in
G
In your smile, there's a certain lack
Bm
A muscle strain from front to back 
A
So I'll do anything to get me right back home
