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
