I Was Thinking I Could Clean Up For Christmas

Aimee Mann

 AGBm
I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas  
 AGD
And then, baby, I'm through    
Four more weeks that couldn't make any difference
Except maybe to you

 FD
But I've tried to use that trick
 FDFm
Like a carrot on a stick  
So I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
Then, baby, I'm through

I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
And then, baby, I'm done
One less fucker trying to get in the business
Of the prodigal son

Where I know I can't compete
Once I'm off of Hastings Street
So I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
Then, baby, I'm done
 AGBm
'Cause I can't live loaded and I can't live sober    
 AGBm
And I've been this way since the end of October     
 A
And I know enough to know
 GBmD
That, baby, when it's over, it's over
And it's over
 A
'Cause, baby, I'm done

I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
And then call it a day
Tell you I'm sorry that I made you a witness
To my moral decay

And that, once upon a time
I believed it was a victimless crime
I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
Then call it a day
Then call it a day
Then call it a day
