[Verse 1]
N.C
It was Christmas Eve babe
N.C.
In the drunk tank
N.C.
An old man said to me,
N.C.
Won't see another one
N.C.
And then he sang a song
N.C.
The Rare Old Mountain Dew
N.C.
I turned my face away
N.C.
And dreamed about you
N.C.
Got on a lucky one
N.C.
Came in eighteen to one
N.C.
I've got a feeling
N.C.
This year's for me and you
N.C.
So happy Christmas
N.C.
I love you baby
N.C.
I can see a better time
G
When all our dreams come true

G
They've got cars

Big as bars
Cadd9
They've got rivers of gold
G
But the wind goes right through you
D
It's no place for the old
G
When you first took my hand
G Cadd9
On a cold Christmas Eve
G
You promised me
D G
Broadway was waiting for me

G
You were handsome

You were pretty
D
Queen of New York City
G Cadd9
When the band finished playing
D G
They howled out for more
G
Sinatra was swinging
D
All the drunks they were singing
G
We kissed on the corner
D G
Then danced through the night

[Chorus]
Cadd9
The boys of the NYPD choir
G Em
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
G Cadd9
And the bells are ringing
D G
Out for Christmas day

[Instrumental]
G Cadd9 G D

[Verse 2]
G
You're a bum

You're a punk
Cadd9
You're an old gal on junk
G
Lying there almost dead
D G
On a drip in that bed

G
You scumbag

You maggot
D
You cheap lousy blagger
G Cadd9
Merry Christmas you mugger

I pray God
G
It's our last

[Chorus]
Cadd9
The boys of the NYPD choir
G Em
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
G Cadd9
And the bells are ringing
D G
Out for Christmas day

[Instrumental]
G Cadd9 G D

[Verse 3]
G
I could have been someone
Cadd9
Well, so could anyone
G
You took my dreams
D
From me when I first found you
G
I kept them with me babe
Cadd9
I put them with my own
G
Can't make it all alone
D G
I've built my dreams around you

[Chorus]
Cadd9
The boys of the NYPD choir
G Em
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
G Cadd9
And the bells are ringing
D G
Out for Christmas day

[Instrumental]

In a one-horse open sleigh, hey

O'er the fields we go

Laughing all the way

Bells on bobtails ring

Making spirits bright

What fun it is to ride and sing

A sleighing song tonight
