It was Christmas [C]Eve babe
|
||
|
In the [F]drunk tank
|
||
|
An old man [C]said to me
|
||
|
Won't see an[G]other one
|
||
|
|
||
|
And then he [C]sang a song
|
||
|
The Rare Old [F]Mountain Dew
|
||
|
And I turned my [C]face away
|
||
|
And [F]dreamed a[G]bout [C]you
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Got on a lucky one
|
||
|
Came in eighteen to one
|
||
|
I've got a feeling
|
||
|
This year's for me and you
|
||
|
|
||
|
So happy Christmas
|
||
|
I love you baby
|
||
|
I can see a better time
|
||
|
When all our dreams come true

They've got [C]cars
|
||
|
Big as [G]bars
|
||
|
They've got [Am]rivers of [F]gold
|
||
|
But the [C]wind goes right through you
|
||
|
It's no place for the [G]old
|
||
|
|
||
|
When you [C]first took my [Am]hand
|
||
|
On a [C]cold Christmas [F]Eve
|
||
|
You [C]promised me
|
||
|
Broadway was [G]waiting for [C]me
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
[C]You were handsome
|
||
|
You were pretty
|
||
|
Queen of New York [G]City
|
||
|
When the [C]band finished [F]playing
|
||
|
They [G]howled out for [C]more
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sinatra was swinging
|
||
|
All the drunks they were singing
|
||
|
We kissed on the corner
|
||
|
Then danced through the night
|
||
|
|
||
|
{start_of_chorus}
|
||
|
The [F]boys of the NY[Am]PD [G]choir
|
||
|
Were [C]singing ``Galway [Am]Bay''
|
||
|
And the [C]bells were [F]ringing
|
||
|
[G]Out for Christmas [C]day

You're a bum
|
||
|
You're a punk
|
||
|
You're an old slut on junk
|
||
|
Living there almost dead
|
||
|
On a drip in that bed
|
||
|
|
||
|
You scum bag
|
||
|
You maggot
|
||
|
You cheap lousy faggot
|
||
|
Happy Christmas your arse
|
||
|
I pray God it's our last
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
I could have been someone
|
||
|
So could anyone
|
||
|
You took my dreams from me
|
||
|
When I first found you
|
||
|
|
||
|
I kept them with me babe
|
||
|
I put them with my own
|
||
|
Can't make it all alone
|
||
|
I've built my dreams around you
