It was Christmas Eve babe
G
In the drunk tank
D Asus4 A7
An old man said to me Won't see another one ■
D
And then he sang a song
G
The Rare Old Mountain Dew
D
I turned my face away
G A A7
And dreamed about you
[Chorus]
D
Got on a lucky one
G
Came in eighteen to one
D
I've got a feeling
Asus4 A7
This year's for me and you ■
D
So happy Christmas
G
I love you baby
D
I can see a better time

When all our dreams come true

D A Bm
They've got cars big as bars they've got rivers of gold
D
But the wind goes right through you it's no place for the old
A Bm7 D
When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve
A
You promised me Broadway was waiting for me
D
You were handsome
D
You were pretty Queen of New York City
G D
When the band finished playing
A
They howled out for more
D
Sinatra was swinging all the drunks they were singing
G D A
We kissed on a corner then danced through the night
[Chorus]
G
The boys of the NYPD choir
D Bm
Were singing Galway Bay
D G A
And the bells were ringing out
D Bm7
For Christmas day ■
[Verse]
D A D
■ ■ You're a bum you're a punk
D
You're an old slut on junk
G A
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
D
You scumbag you maggot
D
You cheap lousy faggot
G
Happy Christmas your arse
A
I pray God it's our last
[Chorus]
G
The boys of the NYPD choir
D Bm
Still singing Galway Bay
D G A
And the bells were ringing out
D
For Christmas day

D
I could have been someone
G
Well so could anyone
D
You took my dreams from me
A
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
A D
I've built my dreams around you
G A
■ The boys of the NYPD choir
D
Still singing Galway Bay
Bm7 D D
And the bells are ringing out
A D
For Christmas day
