      [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


[Chorus]
          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


[Chorus]
          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

[Chorus]
          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

[Outro]
G Dm F C x2

Em Dm F C
Em Dm F Am
Em Dm F C
Em Dm F C
