This 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]Wondering if you're still hanging around [C]down here.
[G]With the holiday lights, they line these streets
[C]Where I once loved you & you once loved me.
I'm s[Am]orry, it just gets[C] to me.
[C]I wonder if I called up your [Am]house
[C]If your momma would let you [D]out?
[C]Maybe, baby
I'll see you this Christmas,[G] What do you say?[D]
C D (Twice & Hold)
Or maybe, baby
I'll see you on New Year's D[G]ay.
[G]I remember your eyes with the snow outside
You said, "This p[C]lace always looked a little better in white."
[G]I wanna look up and see your face one more [C]time.
Feels like the c[G]lock stopped ticking the day that I left,
I thi[C]nk of you & I still catch my breath
I'm s[Am]orry, you still get t[C]o me.
[C]I wonder if you'll be going o[Am]ut,
[C]There's only one party in this to[D]wn.
[C]Maybe, baby,
I'll see you this Christmas[G]
I hope and pray.[D]
Or [C]maybe, baby,[D]
I'll see you on New Year's D[G]ay.
Baby [Am]it's so strange being back here again,
I keep ru[C]nning into all of our old friends.
This who[G]le town ringing in one more year,
I do[C]n't wanna let this feeling disappear.
I pr[Am]ayed that you might be here tonight,
And ther[C]e 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,
we didn't get Christmas,[G]
But if you stay.[D]
C D (twice&hold)
Or maybe, baby,
We could have New Year's Day.[G]
Repeat G, C through end, end on G:
Maybe, maybe, baby
Maybe, maybe.
at least it's more accurate than the other version.
