It Doesn’t Have to Be That Way Jim Croce
[C] Snowy [Cmaj7]nights and Christ[C6]mas lig[C]hts,
[F] Icy [Em]window panes,[Dm7] [G7]
[C] Make me [Cmaj7]wish that [C6]we could [C]be[D7]
[D7] Together agai[G7]n
And the [C]windy [Cmaj7]winter [C6]aven[C]ues
[F] Just don't [Em]seem the sam[Dm7]e,
[G7] And the [C]Christmas [Cmaj7]carols [C6]sound like [C]blues,
But the [F]choir is [G7]not to bla[C]me
CHORUS:
[G7]But it [C]doesn't have to [F]be that wa[Em]y
[F] What we [Em]had should [F]nev[Em]er [F]have [Em]end[C]ed
I'll be dropping b[F]y toda[Em]y

[F] [Em] [F] [Em] [F]
[Dm]'Ca[C]use[D7] we could easily get it together tonight
[G7] It's only rig[C]ht[G7]
[C] Crowded [Cmaj7]stores, the [C6]corner San[C]ta Claus,
[F] Tinseled [Em]afternoons,[G7]
And the [C]sidewalk [Cmaj7]bands that [C6]play their so[C]ngs[D7]
Slightly out of tun[G7]e
On the [C]windy w[Cmaj7]inter [C6]aven[C]ues
[F] There walks a [Em]lonely man[Dm7],[G7]
And [C]if I [Cmaj7]told you [C6]who he i[C]s,
Well I [F]think you'd [G7]understan[C]d
(CHORUS 2x)
