verse 1
D
Every year around this time, I start to think about you
Bm
We're really gonna have another Christmas Eve without you
G A
I can't believe it's been so long
D
Everyday finds a way to make me think about you
Bm
Like today when we were picking out the tree without you
G A
I can't believe it's been so long
Pre-Chorus
D
Oh, we miss you like hell, all the stories that you'd tell
Bm
'Bout the boat that you built, but never got to sail
G A
I don't know whether I should cry or I should smile through my tears
N.C.
But if you were here we would
Chorus
D
Sail that boat into the red horizon
Bm
Those years lost, I'd tell you all about 'em
G A
Gone don't always mean that you disappear
N.C
'Cause inside all of us you're still here

Another year has passed and now it's time for buying the presents

I even got you one forgetting you're not gonna get it
G A
I can't believe it's been so long
D
This time around we'll try to smile 'cause we're sick of tears
Bm
Most days are easy now, but it gets hard this time of year
G A
I can't believe you're really gone
Pre-Chorus

Oh, we miss you like hell, all the stories that you'd tell

Sail that boat into the red horizon

Those years lost, I'd tell you all about 'em

Wild and free, I've got so many memories

Soon time too will take it all of 'em from me

Gone don't always mean that you disappear

'Cause inside all of us you're still here
