Intro: G -> D -> A -> D -> A
D It was Christmas Eve babe G In the drunk tank D An old man said to me, A "Won't see another one" D And then he sang a song G 'The Rare Old Mountain Dew' D I turned my face away A D A And dreamed about you D Got on a lucky one G Came in eighteen to one D I had a feeling A That year was for me and you D Said Happy Christmas G I love you baby D I can see a better time G A D When all our dreams come true

D, A, D, A, D, G, D, A, D -------------------------------- D A They've got cars big as bars Bm G They've got rivers of gold D But the wind blows right through you A It's no place for the old D A When I first took your hand D G All your fingers were blue D But I promised you A D Broadway was waiting for you A I was handsome, you were pretty D A Queen of New York City D G When the band finished playing A D They howled out for more A Sinatra was swinging, D A All the drunks they were singing D G We kissed on a corner A D Then danced through the night G The boys of the NYPD choir D Bm Were singing "Galway Bay" D G A And the bells were ringing out D For Christmas day
-----------------------
D, A, D, G, D, G, A, D ----------------------- D A The apartment was cluttered D A And it smelled like the gutter D G Where My sad broken promises A D lay with the trash A Every cold dreary night D G We'd end up in a fight D G And I'd pray as you'd yell A D That a train'd rattle past G And 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, G, D, A ----------- D I could have been someone G Said so could anyone D That I took your dreams from you A When you first found me D I kept them with me babe G I put them with my own D Can't make it all alone G A D A I've built my dreams around you D Its Christmas Eve again G In the drunk tank D I'm an old man now A I won't see another one D So I'll sing a song G And sleep when I am through D Dream of another life G A D Where all our dreams came true.
