Christmas in July Chords

Capo: 1st fret(Key: Bb)

[verse]

         A
Well i'm half a mile from canberra
Where it snowed for fifteen minutes
         D
Now it's gone
        A
I could put my stocking on the tree
Suspending all belief
                  D
But i know that's wrong
So very wrong

[chorus]

E         D
'cos it's christmas in july
         E
And my extraordinary life
            A
Is still on song
            D
A lot going on
E    D
I've released my inner santa
         E
And he's dancing with the 'roos
            A
By the billabong
       D
In a sarong

[verse]

            A
We're eight thousand miles from reykjavik
Where snow is falling thick
              D
And i miss my boo
I don't know what to do
     A
So i stare back at a reindeer
Through a glass wall
                   D
In the old taronga zoo
And i think of you

[chorus]

E         D
'cos it's christmas in july
          E
And this extraordinary guy
              A
Who's aim was true
                  D
But he missed his cue

E  D
Is dreaming of a cold white night
      E
Where everything could be put right
  A
Tonight
           D       A
For me and you, ah yeah

[bridge]

E     D           Bm              A
  i'm driving out in this nowhere zone
   E
To find some place
D                 Bm
Somewhere warm to go
             E
'cos it's so damn cold

[verse]

     A
Soon everything could be put right
My lonely snow cone world
              D
Would be shut tight
Without a fight
             A
And i'll see santa landing on the roof
A lone star in the sky
            D
To serve as proof
Oh ain't that the truth?

[chorus]

E        D
But it's christmas in july
         E
And my extraordinary life's
              A
All black and white
           D     A
Out here tonight
          D
And there must have been an oversight
   E
No blinking of a warning light
  A
Tonight
               D     A
And that ain't right

        D
So it's christmas all alone
         E
I'm in a place that i can't
               A
Really call my home
               D     A
And my cover's blown
          D
And i'm a million light years
Out of place
E                          A
Dreaming of a time so far away
            D
So far from home
             A
And i'm all alone
