Christmas in July

capo: 1st fret 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
