Father Christmas - The Kinks | Guitar Chords | VChords

[Verse 1]
---------------------
I feel tears wellin' up cold and deep inside
     C                     G
Like my heart sprung a big break
And the stab of loneliness, sharp and painful
     A7          D
That I may never shake
    G
Now you might say that I was taking it hard
          C                       G
Since you wrote me off with a call
But don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow
           D                    G
When I may break right down and bawl
                G
Now the race is on

[Chorus]
---------------------
And here comes pride up the back stretch
C                          G
 Heartache's agoing to the inside
My tears are holding back
A7                          D
  They're trying not to fall
G
My heart's out of the running
            C
True love's scratched for another's sake
G
 The race is on, and it looks like heartache's
        D            G
And the winner loses all

[Verse 2]
---------------------
One day I had ventured in love, never once suspecting
         C                     G
What the final results would be
How I lived in fear of waking up each morning
       A7                          D
And finding that you'd gone from me
        G
There's aching and pain in my heart
                    C                       G
For the day was the one that I hated to face
Somebody new came up to win her
      D                  G
And I came out in second place
                G
Now the race is on
