SLOW VERSE 

Asus4/E D G/D                  D               G

              It was Christmas Eve babe, in the drunktank

           D                       G/A       A            D

An old man said to me, won't see another one  And then he sang a song

              G                             D

'The Rare Old Mountain Dew' And I turned my face away

    G        Asus4/E D   G/A

And dreamed about    you

SLOW VERSE 

  G/A            D                       G

        Got on a lucky one, came in eighteen to one

           D                       G/A        A

I've got a feeling this year's for me and you

         D                    G

So Happy Christmas, I love you baby

            D                G        Asus4/E    D

I can see a better time when all our dreams come true

 

G/D D G/D Asus4           /faster now/     D A  D G A D

VERSE 

            D

They've got cars

       A

Big as bars

            Bm        G

They've got rivers of gold

        D

But the wind goes right through you

                      A

It's no place for the old

         D             Bm

When you first took my hand

     D              G

On a cold Christmas Eve

    D

You promised me

             A           D

Broadway was waiting for me

VERSE 

         D

You were handsome

You were pretty

                  A

Queen of New York City

         D             G

When the band finished playing

     A              D

They howled out for more

D

Sinatra was swinging

                         A

All the drunks they were singing

   D             G

We kissed on the corner

     A                  D

Then danced through the night

HOOK 

    G             Bm A

The boys of the NYPD choir

     D               Bm

Were singing 'Galway Bay'

        D          G

And the bells were ringing

A                 D A Bm G  D A  D Bm D G   D A D

Out for Christmas day

VERSE 

D

You're a bum

         D

You're a punk

                      A

You're an old slut on junk

       D            G         A

Living there almost dead on a drip

        D

In that bed

    D

You scum bag

 

You maggot

                A

You cheap lousy faggot

      D              G

Happy Christmas your arse

       A

I pray God

         D    A D

It's our last

HOOK 

       G          Bm A

The boys of the NYPD choir

       D                Bm

Still singing 'Galway Bay'

        D          G

And the bells are ringing

A                 D    G   D   A   D A D

Out for Christmas Day

SLOW VERSE 

  A          D

I could have been someone

               G

Well, so could anyone

            D

You took my dreams

                     A

From me when I first found you

            D

I kept them with me babe

           G

I put them with my own

              D

Can't make it all alone

              G        A    D

I've built my dreams around you

HOOK 

       G          Bm A

The boys of the NYPD choir

       D                Bm

Still singing 'Galway Bay'

        D  

And the bells are ringing

                  D

Out for Christmas Day
