D                   C
Rows of lights in a circle of steel,

          D                    G
Where you place your bets on a great big wheel

D            C                           G
High windows flickerin' down through the snow,

  D
A time you know

                         G             A
Sights and sounds of the people goin' 'round,

     Cmaj7                   D
Everybody's in step with the season 

  D                  C
A child is born to a welfare case,

          D                         G
Where the rats run around like they own the place

D           C                       G
The room is chilly, the building is old,

D
That's how it goes

                          G       A
The doctor's found on his welfare round,

       Cmaj7                      D
And he comes and he leaves on the double 

D                      C
Deck The Halls was the song they played,

       D                         G
In the flat next door where they shout all day

D            C                         G
She tips her gin bottle back till it's gone,

    D
The child is strong

                         G        A
A week, a day, they will take it away,

         Cmaj7                  D
For they know about all her bad habits
D G A Cmaj7 D
D                       C
Christmas dawns and the snow lets up,

        D                          G
And the sun hits the handle of her heirloom cup

D             C                       G
She hides her face in her hands for a while,

     D
Says look here child

                            G            A
Your father's pride was his means to provide,

         Cmaj7                        D
And he's servin' three years for that reason 

D                   C
Rows of lights in a circle of steel,

          D                    G
Where you place your bets on a great big wheel

D            C                           G
High windows flickerin' down through the snow,

  D
A time you know

                         G             A
Sights and sounds of the people goin' 'round

Everybody's in step with the season
