Fairytale of New York

[Intro]
C# F# G# C# F# G# C#


[Verse]
                 C#   
  It was Christmas Eve
              F#
babe, in the drunktank
           C#           
  An old man said to me,
            G#
won't see another one
            C#            
  And then he sang a song,
              F#
the Rare Old Mountain Dew
            C#         
  I turned my face away
              G#    C#
and dreamed about you


[Verse]
         C#          
  Got on a lucky one,
             F#
came in eighteen to one
           C#             
  I've got a feeling, this
            G#
year's for me and you
         C#          
  So happy Christmas,
            F#
I love you baby
            C#            
  I can see a better time,
              G#           C#
when all our dreams come true


[Interlude]
C# F# G# C# F# G# C#
C#  C#  C#  F#  G#  C#


[Verse]
            C#
They've got cars
       G#
Big as bars
            A#m        F#
They've got rivers of gold
        C#  
But the wind goes

right through you
                      G#
It's no place for the old
         C#             A#m
When you first took my hand
     C#              F#
On a cold Christmas Eve
    C#
You promised me
             G#           C#
Broadway was waiting for me


[Pre-Chorus]
         C#
You were handsome

You were pretty
                  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 the corner
     G#                  C#
Then danced through the night


[Chorus]
    F#             A#m
The boys of the NYPD choir
     C#               A#m
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
        C#
And the bells
             G#                 C#
were ringing out for Christmas day


[Interlude]
C# C# F# F#
C#  G#  C#  G#
C#  C#  F#  F#
C#  G#  G#  C#


[Pre-Chorus]
C#
You're a bum

You're a punk
                      G#
You're an old slut on junk
       C#            F#         G#
Living there almost dead on a drip
        C#
In that bed

You scum bag

You maggot
                G#
You cheap lousy faggot
      C#              F#
Happy Christmas your arse
       G#
I pray God
         C#
It's our last



[Chorus]
    F#             A#m
The boys of the NYPD choir
     C#               A#m
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
        C#
And the bells
             G#                 C#
were ringing out for Christmas day


[Interlude]
C# C# F# F#
C#  C#
C#  G#  C#  G#~


[Verse]
             C#             
  I could have been someone,
               F#
well so could anyone
            C#           
  You took my dreams from
                  G#
me, 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, I've
                 G#      C#
built my dreams around you


[Chorus]
    F#             A#m
The boys of the NYPD choir
      C#               A#m
Still Singing 'Galway Bay'
        C#\
And the bells
            (G#)               C#
are ringing out for Christmas day
