Vocal Few - Ice storm 2008 merry christmas

^AThe cars on the street are covered in ^Dsnow ^AThe world woke up white and we got nowhere to ^Dgo ^ASo we fill our coffee cups with another^D round ^AAnd watch the quiet streets outside as flakes ^Dfall to the ground

^BmAnd we smile to each other as the record spins a^Eround

^AMerry Christmas (ooo ooo ooo o^Doo) ^AMerry Christmas (ooo ooo ooo o^Doo)

^AWe put our jackets on and go for a w^Dalk ^AThe neighbors are building a snowman just down the b^Dlock ^Aand people share our smiles as they can r^Delate ^AYeah we're forced to accept the things that we cannot c^Dhange

^BmSo we smile to each other and s^Eay...

^AMerry Christmas (ooo ooo ooo o^Doo) ^AMerry Christmas (ooo ooo ooo o^Doo)

^BmMerry Christmas (ooo ooo ooo o^Eoo)

^BmYeah they called it Ice Storm 2008 ^EAnd we were stuck on the hill and so we sledded all day ^C#mPretended work didn't ever exist ^DAnd we laughed at all the trouble that we were in ^BmAnd we watched the bold ones try to leave ^ELike the land rover on Lizzie's street ^C#mAs it ping-ponged off parked cars ^DBefore the driver abandoned all his chances at the bottom ^BmAnd we drank hot whiskey apple cider ^EAnd took the bus down to the theater ^C#mWas the happiest bus load of people alive ^DAs we white-knuckle laughed and prayed aloud we don't die ^BmAnd there was this persuasive post-war feeling ^ELike a bomb had dropped and folks were reeling ^C#mBut the damage was snow and ice ^DAnd it became the common ground that helped us see eye-to-eye

^BmSo we smiled to each other and s^Eaid...

^AMerry Christmas! (ooo ooo ooo o^Doo) ^AMerry Christmas! (ooo ooo ooo o^Doo) ^BmMerry Christmas! (ooo ooo ooo o^Eoo) ^AMerry Christmas! (ooo ooo ooo o^Doo) ^AMerry Christmas! (ooo ooo ooo o^Doo) ^BmMerry Christmas! (ooo ooo ooo o^Eoo) ^AMerry Christmas
