Tom Walker - For Those Who Can't Be Here Chords

[intro]
C

[verse 1]
         C
We put the lights up on the tree
            C
And all the presents underneath
          F
Light the fire, it's getting cold
           F
Another year of "Will it snow?"
       C
Mixing lager and champagne
            C
Somethin' I'll never do again
          F
Round the table banter flows
           F
Praying no one rocks the boat

[chorus]
        Am                             F
Still I know, this picture's not quite right
                        C
There's someone on your mind
                         G
First Christmas time without him by your side,
    Am
I know
                       F
The sound of Christmas bells
                   C
They never say farewell
                       G
So we laugh, we shed a tear
                       C
For those who can't be here

[verse 2]
               C
We're drinking sherry just because
            C
Confessing all our Christmas love
            F
Watch Home Alone for the thousandth time
               F
It's the only movie that we all like

[chorus]
      Am                             F
But I know, this picture's not quite right
                      C
There's someone on my mind
                         G
First Christmas time without him by our side,
     Am
 I know
                         F
He loved these Christmas bells
                          C
'Cause they never say farewell
                       G
So we laugh, we shed a tear
                       C
For those who can't be here

[interlude]
C  Am7  G

[outro]
                       C    Am7  G
For those who can't be here
                       C
For those who can't be here
                Am7     G
(The bells ring out for them)
                       C
For those who can't be here
                Am7     G
(The bells ring out for them)
                       C
For those who can't be here
               Am      G
The bells ring out for them
                       C
For those who can't be here
               Am      G
The bells ring out for them
                       C
For those who can't be here
