Intro:
AGBmAGBmAGBm
I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
AD#m
And then, baby, I'm through
AGBm
Four more weeks that couldn't make any difference
AD#m
Except maybe to you
FD
But I've tried to use that trick
FB
Like a carrot on a stick
AGBm
So I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
A
Then, baby, I'm through
AGBm
I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
AD#m
And then, baby, I'm done
AGBm
One less fucker trying to get in the business
AD#m
Of the prodigal son
FD
Where I know I can't compete
FB
Once I'm off of Hastings Street
AGBm
So I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
A
Then, baby, I'm done
DE
'Cause I can't live loaded and I can't live sober
DE
And I've been this way since the end of October
D
And I know enough to know
F#mG
That, baby, when it's over, it's over
D
And it's over
Bm
'Cause, baby, I'm done
AGBmAGBm
I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
AD#m
And then call it a day
AGBm
Tell you I'm sorry that I made you a witness
AD#m
To my moral decay
FD
And that, once upon a time
FDB
I believed it was a victimless crime
AGBm
I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
Bm
Then call it a day
Bm
Then call it a day
Bm
Then call it a day
