[Intro]
D

[Verse 1]
D                    D/F#   
To the tempo of your uptight
                    Bm          
Is the flicker of a street light
                           D 
You know this moment don’t ya
                      D/F#    
And time is strangely calm now
                   Bm       
‘Cause everybody’s gone it’s
                    D  
Just you and your anger

[Pre-Chorus]
          D/F#                         Bm  
Oh golden boy, don’t act like you were kind
                                       D   
You were mine but you were awful every time
                            D/F#   
So don’t tell them what you told me
                       Bm     
Don’t hold me like you know me
                        G  
I would rather burn forever

[Chorus]
               A                D   
But you should know that I died slow
                    Bm                    G   
Running through the halls of your haunted home
                 A                    D   
And the toughest part is that we both know
                 Bm 
What happened to you
                       G  
Why you’re out on your own
      A                       D   
Merry Christmas, please don’t call

[Verse 2]
D                         D/F#    
You really left me on the line kid
                 Bm     
Holding all your baggage
                         D  
You know I’m not your father
                         D/F#   
Who says welcome to your uptight
                         Bm          
While it flickers like a street light
                           D   
He flickers through your damage

[Pre-Chorus]
          D/F#                          Bm  
Oh golden boy you shined a light on our home
                                          D   
And at your best, you were magic, we were sold
                            D/F#   
So don’t tell them what you told me
                              Bm     
Don’t even tell them that you know me
                        G  
I would rather burn forever

[Chorus]
               A                D   
But you should know that I died slow
                    Bm                    G   
Running through the halls of your haunted home
                 A                    D   
And the toughest part is that we both know
                 Bm 
What happened to you
                       G  
Why you’re out on your own
      A                       D   
Merry Christmas, please don’t call

[Bridge]
D                                
One ticket out of your heavy gaze
  D                                   
I want one ticket off of your carousel
  D                                     
I want one ticket out of your heavy gaze
  D                                   
I want one ticket off of your carousel

[Chorus]
G              A                D   
But you should know that I died slow
                    Bm                    G   
Running through the halls of your haunted home
                 A                    D   
And the toughest part is that we both know
                 Bm 
What happened to you
                       G  
Why you’re out on your own
      A                       G   
Merry Christmas, please don’t call
      A                           G  
Merry Christmas, I’m not yours at all
      A                       D      Bm
Merry Christmas, please don’t call me

[Outro]
             G     A
Please don’t call me
             D     Bm
Please don’t call me
             G     AD
Please don’t call me
