NC It was Christmas Eve C babe, in the F drunk tank
An old man C said to me, won't see a-G-nother one
And then he C sang a song, the Rare Old F Mountain Dew
I turned my C face away and F dreamed a-Gbout C you. G
Got on a C lucky one, came in eight-F-teen to one
I've got a C feeling this year's for G me and you
So happy C Christmas, I love you F baby
I can see a C better time when F all our G dreams come C true

They've got 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 G hand on a Am cold Christmas F Eve
You C promised me Broadway was G waiting for C me
You were C handsome, you were pretty, Queen of New York G City
When the C band finished F playing they G howled out for C more
Si-C-natra was swinging, all the drunks they were G singing
We C kissed on the F corner then G danced through the C night

And the F boys of the NYPD choir still C singing "Galway Am Bay"
And the C bells were F ringing G out for Christmas C day.

You're a C bum, you're a punk, you're an old slut on G junk
Lying C there almost F dead on a G drip in that C bed
You scumbag, you maggot, you cheap lousy G faggot
Happy C Christmas your F arse, I pray G God it's our C last

And the F boys of the NYPD choir still C singing "Galway Am Bay"

NC I could have G been C someone, well so could F anyone
You took my C dreams from me when I first G found you
I kept them C with me babe, I put them F with my own
Can't make it C all alone, I've built my F dreams a-Ground C you C // /// ///
