    D A
    This day a year ago he was rolling in the snow
  • Bm A G D
    With a younger brother in his father's yard
    A Bm
  • Christmas break a time for touching home
    Em A
    The heart of all he'd known and leaving was so hard
  • D A
    Three thousand miles away now he's working Christmas Day
    Bm A G D
  • Making double time for the minding of the store
    A Bm
    Well he'd always said he'd make it on his own
  • Em
    He's spending Christmas Eve alone
    G A D
  • First Christmas away from home
     
    D A
  • She's standing by the train station, panhandling for change
    Bm A G D
    Four more dollars buys a decent meal and a room
  • A Bm
    Looks like the Sally Ann place after all
    Em A
  • In a crowded sleeping hall that echoes like a tomb
    D A
    But it's warm and clean and free and there are worse places to be
  • Bm A G D
    And at least it means no beating from her Dad
    A Bm
  • And if she cries because it's Christmas Day
    Em
    She hopes that it won't show
  • G A D
    First Christmas away from home
     
  • A D
    In the apartment stands a tree and it looks so small and bare
    G D
  • Not like it was meant to be
    A Bm
    The Golden Angel on the top it's not that same old silver star
  • Em
    You wanted for your own
    G A D
  • First Christmas away from home
     
    D A
  • In the morning they get prayers then it's Crafts and tea downstairs
    Bm A G D
    Then another meal back in his little room
  • A Bm Em
    Hoping maybe that the boys will think to phone before the day is gone
    A
  • Well it's best they do it soon
    D A
    When the old girl passed away he fell more apart eyery day
  • Bm A G D
    Each had always kept the other pretty well
    A Bm
  • But the kids all said the nursing home was best
    Em
    Cause he couldn't live alone
  • G A D
    First Christmas away from home
     
  • A
    In the Common Room they've got the biggest tree
    D
  • And it's huge and cold and lifeless
    G D
    Not like it ought to be
  • A
    And the lit-up flashing Santa Claus on top
    Bm Em
  • It's not that same old silver star you once made for your own
    G A D
    First Christmas away from home
  • G A D
    First Christmas away from home
