[VERSE 1]
You [F]walk me through the park[C] where all the [G]dark spots are lit by snow[Dm]
You [F]talk me through my part[C] as if you're [G]starring the show[Dm]
I [F]hate you 'cause of the way[C] these goddamn [G]snowflakes lick your hair[Dm]
I [F]hate you 'cause I need[C] you, 'cause I know[G] that you don't[Dm] care
You remind[F] me I'm [Am]no longer[G] young

[VERSE 2]
It's the [F]20th of Decem [C]- ber, Santa's [G]looking kind of worn[Dm]
The [F]windows shine like em [C]- bers and [G]every year there's [Dm]more
I don't [F]think I look much ol [C]- der, but I'm [G]not the one to ask[Dm]
No[F]stalgia's getting bold [C]- er with [G]every day that[Dm] passes
It reminds[F] me I'm [Am]no longer[G] young[G]
[CBORUS]
Back [G/B]then the [C]streets were [G]paved with light,[Dm]
As if this [F]town was [G]built by night[Am] [G]
And our [C]steps like [G]hyperspace[Dm] flight,
In a [F]universe[G] that was [F]ours by right[C]
[INTERLUDE]

[VERSE 3]
You [F]look at me through len [C]- ses of i[G]deas that were never mine[Dm]
You're [F]shooting 'cross the tren [C]- ches, in the [G]world war of your mind[Dm]
You've [F]gone and hit old San [C]- cho between the [G]halo and the eyes[Dm]
Bet he [F]didn't see it co[C]ming just the [G]tunnel and the light[Dm]
[VERSE 4]
So [F]go away and pray[C] baby, come [G]back when you can cry[Dm]
It's [F]Christmas time remem [C]- ber, the [G]least you should do is try[Dm]
The [F]90's like the weak[C] link in the [G]chain around my heart[Dm]
The [F]peace I've built within[C] it, it's like an [G]island off the charts[Dm]
[VERSE 5]
You [F]step in like a tow[C] truck, and [G]tear my world apart,[Dm]
[F]Yawning like a house[C] cat playing [G]cruelly with the mouse[Dm]
You're [F]shouting cross the tren [C]- ches to [G]steal my peace of mind[Dm]
It was [F]you who killed the an [C]- gels, you the greatest [G]lover of all[Dm] time
[PRE-CBORUS]
You're [F]just a petty thief[C] now, in the [G]universe of small[Dm] crime
You remind[F] me I'm [Am]no longer[G] young[G]
[CBORUS]
Back [G/B]then the [C]streets were [G]paved with light,[Dm]
As if this [F]town was [G]built by night[Am] [G]
And our [C]steps like [G]hyperspace[Dm] flight,
In a [F]universe[G] that was [F]ours by right[C]
