[A] [C]
[G] There was Christmas [Cm] Eve, babe
[F#] In the drunk [F] tank
An old [C] man said to me
We'll see another [Bm] while
[G] And then he sang a song
Where rare old Mountain [F] Dew
I turned my [Em] face away
[C] And dreamed about you
[G]
Da-dun, a [C] lucky one
Came [G] in 18 [F] to 1
I've [C] got a feeling
This year is for me and [G] you
So [C] happy Christmas
I [Em] love you, [F] baby
I can see a [Em] better time
[C] When all [D] our dreams come true
[Am] [G]
[C]
[A] [C] The skies look as broad as they've got rivers that flow
But snow deep outside, there's no place for the old
When I first [Am] began on a cold Christmas Eve
[C] Told me that Broadway was waiting for me
In the truest knowledge from slaves
The curtain came down, still it was the blest
You were handsome, you were pretty, queen of New York City
We danced in the hall where the moon lit the day
[F] The boys on the NYPD choir [C] were singing all [Am] the way by
And the bells were [G] ringing out for Christmas Day
[C] [G] [C]
You're handsome, you're pretty, it's a hell of a city
[Am] It's a town without a history
Now the [C] songs are all played
You're a bum, you're a punk, nothing left here but junk
Hey, I ain't even been home since last Christmas Day
[F] The boys on the NYPD [C] choir were singing [A] all the way by
And the bells were ringing out for [C] Christmas Day
I [Gm] [F]
[C] [D]
should [C] have been someone
[F]
You took [C] my dreams from me
When I [G] first found you
I carried [C] them with me, babe
I put [F] them with my arms
Can't make [C] it all alone
I've felt my dreams around you
