  			Intro: G Dm F C x2 

Verse: 1 
       G                    Dm 
In the world that you would make up 
     F                    C 
With unicorns and buffalo backs 
  G                   Dm 
I know that you would wake up 
         F                        C 
With the sunny side touching your back 


 
          G       Dm 
Is it the lonely man of Christmas? 
F                          C 
Coming up with theories on him 
          G       Dm 
Is it the lonely man of Christmas? 
     F                      C 
He's riding in the devil's abyss 


Verse: 2 
    Em                Dm 
Oh, I would rate the future 
   F                       Am 
If I could put a finger on it 
    Em         Dm 
But I have no idea 
   F                          Am 
If what I want is better than this 



          Em      Dm 
Is it the lonely man of winter? 
F                        Am 
I could put my finger on that 
          Em      Dm 
Is it the lonely drive to Denver? 
    F                          C 
The loneliness of Hoppington's hat 

Instrumental 
G Dm F C 
Em Dm F C 


          G        Dm 
Is it the time we spent in silence? 
    F                        C 
The silence of a winter we had 
          Em      Dm 
Is it the lonely man of winter? 
F                        C 
I could put my finger on that 


Verse 3 
    Em           Dm 
And even if it's Christmas 
F                           Am 
Could we just pretend for a bit 
     Em            Dm 
That everything we went through 
    F                        Am 
Was someone else's carpenter kiss
