Razorlight – Fairytale Of New York (Ukulele)

                  C
It was Christmas Eve babe

         F
In the drunk tank

            C                    G
An old man said to me, won't see another one

              C
And then he sang a song

              F
The rare old mountain dew

              C
I turned my face away

    F      G      C      G
And dreamed about you

          C
Got on a lucky one

         F
Came in eighteen to one

          C
I've got a feeling

               G
This year for me and you

          C
So happy Christmas

            F
I love you baby

            C
I can see a better time

      F       G         C
When all our dreams come true

           C         G
They've got cars big as bars

           A       F
They've got rivers of gold

         C
But the wind goes right through you

                      G
It's no place for the old

         C             Am
When you first took my hand

     C              F
On a cold Christmas eve

C
You promised me

            G            C
Broadway was waiting for me

          C
You were handsome

                   G
Queen of New York City

          C            F
When the band finished playing

      G            C
They howled out for more

C
Sinatra was swinging,

                          G
All the drunks they were singing

     C          F
We kissed on a corner

        G               C
Then danced through the night

  F                  G
The boys of the NYPD choir

    C              Am
Were singing Galway bay

         C       F        G
And the bells were ringing out

              C
For Christmas day

   C
You're a bum

                      G
You're an old slut on junk

       C           F        G          C
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed

      C
You scumbag, you maggot

                 G
You cheap lousy faggot

         C           F
Happy Christmas your arse

        G           C
I pray God its our last

  F
The boys of the NYPD choir

    C              A
Were singing Galway bay

         C       F        G
And the bells were ringing out

              C          G
For Christmas day

             C
I could have been someone

              F
Well so could anyone

              C
You took my dreams from me

              G
When I first found you

                     C
I kept them with me babe

           F
I put them with my own

             C
Can't make it all alone

      F       G            C
I've built my dreams around you

  F           Am     G
The boys of the NYPD choir

    C              Am
Were singing Galway bay

         C       F        G
And the bells were ringing out

              C
For Christmas day
