Detroit December Chords
[Verse 1]
G F#m7
December brings
G D
the King of Kings
G D/F# A
They tell us that a child is born
G F#m7 G D
But snowy nights and Christmas lights
G A D D7
Just only make me cold and worn
G A G D D7
Salvation bands reach out their hands
G D A
To ask you for a dime or two
G A G D D7
To praise the Lord and Henry Ford
G A D
Detroit, December
[Instrumental]
| G A7 | D4 D D7 |
[Verse 2]
G
The friends
F#m7 G D
I meet along the street
G D/F# A
I know them from the factory
G F#m7 G D D7
But thirty years of building gears
G A D D7
Make Christmas seem untrue to me
G A
Eight hours a day,
G D
just to draw my pay
G D A
And overtime to see me through
G A G
And peace on earth for
D
what it's worth
G A D
Detroit, December
[Instrumental]
| G A | D D7 | G A6 A7 | D4 D |
[Verse 3]
G F#m7
The things I had,
G D
the things I made
G D/F# A
Are lost like pebbles on the beach
G F#m7 G D D7
And any thing I want the most
G A7 D D7
Is always furthest out of reach
G F#m7 G
To trade these blues for
D
dancing shoes
G D
And trade the old year
A
for the new
G F#m7
But time it seems
G D D7
will steal your dreams
G A D D7
Detroit, December and you
[Outro]
