It was Christmas Eve babe, In the drunktank

An old man said to me, won't see another one And then he sang a song

The Rare Old Mountain Dew And I turned my face away

And dreamed about you

D
They've got cars
A
Big as bars
Bm G
They've got rivers of gold
D
But the wind goes right through you
A
It's no place for the old
D Bm
When you first took my hand
D G
On a cold Christmas Eve
D
You promised me
A D
Broadway was waiting for me
D
You were handsome
You were pretty
A
Queen of New York City
D G
When the band finished playing
A D
They howled out for more
D
Sinatra was swinging
A
All the drunks they were singing
D G
We kissed on the corner
A D
Then danced through the night
G Bm A
The boys of the NYPD choir
D Bm
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
D G
And the bells were ringing
A D A Bm G D A D Bm D G D A D
Out for Christmas day
D
You're a bum
D
You're a punk
A
You're an old slut on junk
D G A
Living there almost dead on a drip
D
In that bed
D
You scum bag
You maggot
A
You cheap lousy faggot
D G
Happy Christmas your arse
A
I pray God
D A D
It's our last
G Bm A
The boys of the NYPD choir
D Bm
Still singing `Galway Bay`
D G
And the bells are ringing
A D
Out for Christmas Day
A D
I could have been someone
G
Well, So could anyone
D
You took my dreams
A
From me 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
G A D
I've built my dreams around you
The boys of the NYPD choir
Still Singing `Galway Bay`
And the bells are ringing
Out for Christmas Day
