Bb  D  Gm  Bb  Eb  F  Bb Eb Bb

[Verse 1]
Bb                  D                  Gm         Bb
She said she always loved this time of year
                     Eb       F               Bb     Eb
And how they used to celebrate when he was here
Bb            D  Gm                    Bb
Then he went away and nothing more to say
 Dm       Eb
He's not coming home
               F             Bb
She's gonna be alone for the holidays

[Verse 2]
Bb                    D           Gm       Bb
She wrote down every word in her diary
     Eb
She reads it now and then
    F                     Bb           Eb
To remind her of how it used to be
Bb              D   Gm                        Bb
He's not here today, there's nothing more to say
Dm         Eb
He's not coming home
                 F            Bb
She's gonna be alone for the holidays

[Chorus 1]
Fm

     Db                 Ab       Eb      Fm
She cries all night on Christmas Eve
    Db                 Ab           Eb     Fm
She just gets by on Christmas day
      Db                Ab        Eb
She's lost her will but kept her faith
              Db
But he's not coming home
                 Eb            Ab
She's gonna be alone for the holidays

[Interlude]
Bb  D  Gm  Bb  Eb  F  Bb Eb Bb [x2]

[Chorus 2]
Fm

     Db                Ab         Eb    Fm
She cries all night on New Year's Eve
     Db             Ab             Eb   Fm
She just gets by on New Year's Day
      Db                Ab        Eb
She's lost her will but kept her faith
                  Db
He's never coming home
                     Eb               Ab
She's gonna be alone alone for the holidays
