Intro: G -> D -> A -> D -> A
It was Christmas DEve babe
In the dGrunk tank
An old man sDaid to me,
"Won'tA see another one"
And then he sDang a song
'The Rare Old MGountain Dew'
I turned my fDace away
And dreamed aAbout Dyou A
Got on a lDucky one
Came in eighGteen to one
I had a Dfeeling
That year was fAor me and you
Said Happy CDhristmas
I love you Gbaby
I can see a bDetter time
When allG our drAeams come Dtrue

DThey've got cars big as bAars
They've got riBmvers of gGold
But theD wind blows right through you
It's no place for the Aold
When I Dfirst took your Ahand
All your Dfingers were Gblue
But I pDromised you
Broadway was wAaiting for yDou
I was handsome, you were pAretty
Queen Dof New York ACity
When the bDand finished pGlaying
They hAowled out for mDore
Sinatra was sAwinging,
All the dDrunks they were sAinging
We kDissed on a cGorner
Then dAanced through the nDight
TheG boys of the NYPD choir
Were sDinging "GaBmlway Bay"
And the bDells were rGinging outA
For Christmas daDy
-----------------------
D, A, D, G, D, G, A, D

DThe apartment was cAluttered
And it sDmelled like the gAutter
Where My sDad broken pGromises
lAay with the tDrash
Every cold dreary nAight
We'd end Dup in a fGight
And I'd pDray as you'd yGell
That a tArain'd rattle pDast
And the Gboys of the NYPD choir
still sDinging "GaBmlway Bay"
And the bDells were rGinging out A
For Christmas dayD

D, G, D, A

I could have bDeen someone
Said so could aGnyone
That I took your dDreams from you
When you first fAound me
I kept them wDith me babe
I put them wGith my own
Can't make itD all alone
I've built my Gdreams Aaround Dyou A
Its ChristmasD Eve again
In the dGrunk tank
I'm an oDld man now
I won't see aAnother one
So I'll sDing a song
And sleep when GI am through
Dream of aDnother life
Where aGll our dAreams came tDrue.
