[A] [B] [E] [A]
[E] [A] [E] It was Christmas Eve, babe
In the [A] drunk tank
And old man said to me
We [C#m] won't see [E] another [F#] one [B] and
Then he sang a song
Hooray, [A] old Dindu
I [F#m] turned my [E] face away
[A] And dreamed [B] [E] about you
Got on a lucky one
Came [A] in 18 to 1
I've got [E] a feeling
This [B] year's for me and you
So [E] happy Christmas
I love you, [A] baby
I can see a [E] better time
[B] when all our dreams [E] come true
[B] [E]
[A] [B] [E] There's a park, there's [B] a park, there's [C#] a river [A] of gold
[E] But the wind blows [B] right through you
[E] Snowflakes [B] for the old
[E] When you first took [C#] my hand [E] on that cold [A] Christmas Eve
[E] You promised me Broadway [B] was waiting [E] for me
You were handsome, [Bm] you were pretty
[E] Queen of [A] New York City
[E] When the [A] bandmates played [B] in
And they all [E] held them all
Senata [B] was swinging
[E] On the drums, [A] they were singing
[E] And we kissed [A] our horns
[B] And danced [E] through the night
[A] And the floaty, fluffy
And wide beaded [E] choir
Were singing, [C#] Galway, [E] babe
And the bells were [Bm] ringing [E] out
For Christmas Day
[B] [C#]
[A] [E]
[B] [E] [C#m] [E]
[A] [E] [B]
[E] You're a punk, [B] you're a punk [E] You're an old [A] slut on junk
[E] Laying there, [A] almost dead [B] on a crib [E] in that bed
You [B] scumbag, you maggot, [E] you cheap [A] lout [E] Happy Christmas, [A] your arms [B] like rain, God
[E] is our last [A] And the boys from the NYPD [E] choir were singing
[C#] Galway Bay [E] And the girls were ringing out for Christmas
Day [A]
I [B]
could have been someone
Oh [A] could anyone You [E] took my dreams from me
When I [F#] first found you I [E] kept them with me babe
I put [A] them with my own Can't make it all alone
Until fire screams around you And the boys from the NYPD choir still singing
[C#m] Galway Bay [E] And the bells were ringing [B] out for Christmas
[E]
Day [A] [E]
[C#] [E] And the bells were ringing out for Christmas Day
