lyrics
G
at Christmas time
Ddim6
I drank a glass of wine
D5 13
and looked into the eyes
D_________D7
of a stranger
And though the song
had only just begun
I knew when it was done
I was in danger
C_______________Caug
Dancing away the gloom
____________F6
in the empty room
____________D__D7
that you crept into
within your arms I felt relief
the knife between your teeth
sparkled like the stars
Sax solo
Dancing like there’s nothing wrong
your hands were very strong
beneath the christmas lights
Dancing without regrets
you were cold and wet
a kiss I can’t forget
sax solo
at Christmas time
Ddim6
I drank a glass of wine
D5 13
and looked into the eyes
D_________D7
of a stranger
And though the song
had only just begun
I knew when it was done
I was in danger
C_______________Caug
Dancing away the gloom
____________F6
in the empty room
____________D__D7
that you crept into
within your arms I felt relief
the knife between your teeth
sparkled like the stars

Dancing like there’s nothing wrong
your hands were very strong
beneath the christmas lights
Dancing without regrets
you were cold and wet
a kiss I can’t forget

Jake has made the most essential album to come out of St. John's, so essential it's two albums.

With Darkness In My Eyes
by The Heavy HorsesYeah I made the album art, but also it is very very well done album, production is pure opulence. Justin Mahoney is a true gent.
