[Chorus]
G                         Am7
Every holiday I feel that depression
              Am
From all this division
       G                D/F#
And we don't care, no we don't care
          Em                                  C
We're just sitting in my garage, talking to my aunt
         G                          C
About the storm surge, icebergs, and spring in New England
      G                             C
And a new ring on an old friend and mothers get impatient


[Verse 1]
    G             D/F#              Em
But maybe it's all worth it just to see if we can outrun it
      C          C/B         Am
And I look at you across the room
     C         B      Em
Your eyes like sinking balloons
      G                  C               G
Merry Christmas, babe, I hope we make it through

[Bridge]
    G              C
And it gets heavy, it starts raining
    G           C                  G             G7
And I start noticing the placement of your hand upon my spine
    Am
The fading love is the darkest kind
    G                C
But somehow we'll forget tonight
    G                C
And go up on ladders stringing lights
    G            Am        D7
The gutter never shined so bright


[Chorus]
     G                         Am7
When every holiday I feel that depression
                 Am
From all of this pressure
       G                D/F#
And we don't care, no we don't care
        Em
We just hope it don't stay long
              C
Talking to my aunt
          G                           C
About the warm earth, cold words, and men that make decisions
G                          C
Lying on the TV 'cause the money skips the women


[Verse 2]
    G             D/F#              Em
But maybe it's all worth it just to see if we can outrun it
      C          C/B         Am
And I look at you across the room
     C         B      Em
Your eyes like sinking balloons
      G                  C               G
Merry Christmas, babe, I hope we make it through

[Outrow]
G                         Am7
Every holiday I feel that depression
                 Am
From all of this pressure
    G             D/F#              Em
And maybe it's all worth it just to see if we can outrun it
      C          C/B         Am
And I look at you across the room
     C         B      Em
Your eyes like sinking balloons
      G                  C
Merry Christmas, babe, I hope we make it through
