xThis is my first tab, & I tabbed it by ear. I'm 99% positive that it's accurate,
at least it's more accurate than the other version.
Play it with the song, it sounds exactly right to me.
The only thing I'm not sure about is the single strums of Am & C
at the end of the bridge. Comments? (: Enjoy!!

G
Every Christmas I come back to this town.
C
I come looking through some lost and found
G C
Wondering if you're still hanging around down here.
G
With the holiday lights, they line these streets
C
Where I once loved you & you once loved me.
Am C
I'm sorry, it just gets to me.
C Am
I wonder if I called up your house
C D
If your momma would let you out?
C
Maybe, baby
G D
I'll see you this Christmas, What do you say?
C D (Twice & Hold)
Or maybe, baby
G
I'll see you on New Year's Day.
G
I remember your eyes with the snow outside
C
You said, "This place always looked a little better in white."
G C
I wanna look up and see your face one more time.
G
Feels like the clock stopped ticking the day that I left,
C
I think of you & I still catch my breath
Am C
I'm sorry, you still get to me.
C Am
I wonder if you'll be going out,
C D
There's only one party in this town.
C
Maybe, baby,
G
I'll see you this Christmas
D
I hope and pray.
C D
Or maybe, baby,
G
I'll see you on New Year's Day.
Am
Baby it's so strange being back here again,
C
I keep running into all of our old friends.
G
This whole town ringing in one more year,
C
I don't wanna let this feeling disappear.
Am
I prayed that you might be here tonight,
C
And there you were standing, shining underneath that light,
G
Screaming at the ball on TV, counting down.
D (Strum once each) Am Am C
Streamers and papers piling up on the ground.
(Strum once each) Am Am C
Baby, did you come here alone?
(Strum once each) Am C
Are you maybe looking for someone?
(Strum once each) Am Am C
To kiss you?
(Strum once each) Am Am C
God I've missed you.
C
Maybe, baby,
G
we didn't get Christmas,
D
But if you stay.
C D (twice&hold)
Or maybe, baby,
G
We could have New Year's Day.
Repeat G, C through end, end on G:
Maybe, maybe, baby
Maybe, maybe.
