Capo 1st fret
 
Chorus: (pick strings)
G
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart 
Em
But the very next day, You gave it away 
Am
This year, to save me from tears 
D
I'll give it to someone special 
 
(same chords all the way through)
1,2,3,4
 
G
Once bitten and twice shy
Em
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye 
Am
Tell me baby do you recognise me? 
D
Well it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me          (repeat all the way)
 
(Merry Christmas!) I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I Love You" I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again
           (Dsus4,    D,               Dsus2,     D)
Chorus X2
 
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
 
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
(play Am in this gap)
Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me again
 
Chorus X2
(Instrumenmtal: G Em Am D {Dsus4 + Dsus2 changes})
 
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
 
Chorus X2
