Amaj7 E (repeat)
Verse
Amaj7
The shaking awful, I'm shaking, asshole
E
In weather remote
Amaj7
The snowfall, oh
The snowing, the color
E
We recover from, oh
Amaj7
The Christmas-time coming
Hangover approaching
E
We've been drinking for months
Amaj7
This Christmas-time though, I'm coming over
Chorus
E B E
Coming from the north
B Amaj7
I'm already done
E B E
Wrapping up
B Amaj7 E
the presents I bought
Verse
Amaj7
Overcoat, now take me anywhere, oh
E
We've suffered enough
Amaj7
Scary to leave
E
When they're leaving from work
Amaj7
They're cutting us off
E
Knowing not why
Amaj7
They're calling on the telephone
Chorus
E B
Roy,
E B Amaj7
do I know anyone?
E B
No,
E B Amaj7 E
I don't know anyone
N.C.
Note: I've seen live versions where one guitarist has a capo on 2nd fret and the other doesn't (possibly tuned
down 1 <2beat>step), and another video where Tyler Ramsey has a capo on 5th fret. On the studio version it sounds
like there are a couple guitars plus a lap pedal steel. I tabbed this to be an easy way to play along with
the album without having to tune down. It's a really cool song and there might be some sort of subtle
pitch bending effect on the guitars which makes it sound unique.
