All I Can Give You - Jason Lancaster
Track 09 of Fearless Records' "Punk Goes Christmas" album

These chords are unashamedly stolen from the author who listed
the artist as Go Radio, instead of Jason Lancaster.  I've made
a few changes to his/her original post in editing a few minor
things in the lyrics, adjusting the timing of some of the
chords, and adding the intro chords (a great contribution, I
think).  That being said, most of the chords are two beats in
duration.
                                                 - T N

Intro:

C     G     F     G     (x2)


Verse 1:
C             G            F            G
boxes and bows full of ribbons and clothes
        C          G          F     G
set up neatly beneath the tree
        C             G            F           G
with a tag on each one saying Santa has come
       C                          F
but where are the ones from me?


Pre-Chorus:
          Am            F              C               
Oh how I wanted the lights in your eyes to be mine
  Am            F              G
I wanted the look on your face


Chorus 1:
                        C
All I can give is this Christmas song to you
        C/B             Am
I just hope that you'll sing it
     F
whenever your heart skips a beat
                         C
while you're thinking of me
            C
and if the greetings this season will bring 
            C/B          Am
leave you searching for meaning
         F
you will look to the words I have written
                G
and you'll be set free
              Am         F                C
you have to know that I can't let you down
              Am           F                C 
it's you and me versus the rest of this town
                Am              F       C
and when the lights go out I'll still be around
                        G
to put a bow on some sounds

that's all I can give you this Christmas


C     G     F     G     (x2)


Verse 2:
        C               G                   F           G
and I know that to you it's just jewelry and shoes
        C               G               F        G
but to me they're the smile on your face
                 C                      G               F             G 
cause baby you've been the glue and the nails and the screws
            C                            F
that have managed to keep me in place


Pre-Chorus:
        Am      F             C
so I wanted a gift for my lady in white 
      Am                F            G
but all I could bring you tonight


Chorus 2


Bridge:
           Am            E
And I'm hoping that a melody
       C
will let you know
        Am              E
that I'm waiting for a Christmas kiss
        G
with mistletoe

cause baby that's all I can give is


Chorus 3


C     G     F     G     (repeat into fade out)
