It was Christmas Eve, babe
[G] In the drive-by, [D] my dad said to [A] me
You'll [D] see [A] another one
[D] And then he [E] sang a song
[G] The railroad jumped in queue
I [A] turned my eyes away
And dreamed about you
Caught on, the lucky one
[C#] Came in [G] 18 to 1
[A] Feeling this year's for me and [A] you
[D] So happy Christmas
I love, I can [A] see a better time
When all [Am] our dreams [D] come true
[A]
[D] [A]
They got cars big as bars, they've got [G] rivers of [D] gold
But the wind goes right through you, it's no [A] place for the old
When you first took my hand on that [G] cold Christmas [D] Eve
You promised me Broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome, you were pretty, king of New York City
When the band finished playing, they bowed out for more
Sinatra was swinging, all the trumps they were singing
We kissed in the corner, then danced round the floor
The boys [G] of the NYPD [D] choir still singing
Go away, babe
And the bells [A] were ringing out [D] for Christmas [A] Day
[D]
You're a bum, you're a punk, you're an old son drunk
Living there almost dead on that trip on my bed
You scumbag, you maggot, you cheat, I'll be faggot
Happy Christmas, you're us, I pray God it's our [G] last
The boys of the NYPD [D] choir still singing
[Bm] Go away, babe
[D] And the bells were [A] ringing out for [D] Christmas Day
I could have been someone, well [G] so good
You took [D] my dreams from me when [A] I first found you
I [D] gathered them with me, babe
I have more than we [G] can [D] make it all alone
I [A] filled my dreams around you
[G] The boys of the NYPD [D] choir still singing
[Bm] Go away, babe
[D] And the bells were [A] ringing out for [G] Christmas Day
[Em] [A] And the bells were ringing out for Christmas Day
