Fairytale Of New York Chords - Hakan Hellstrom






Intro: F C Dm7 G

 C
It was Christmas Eve babe 
     F
In the drunk tank 
   C     Dm   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 
    Dm    G  C
And dreamed about you 

 C
Got on a lucky one 
    F
Came in eighteen to one 
   C
I've got a feeling 
Dm   G
This year's for you and me 
 C
So happy Christmas 
   F
I love you baby 
    C
I can see a better time 
     Dm      G C     F C Dm7 G 
When all our dreams come true

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

 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 a corner 
     GC
Then danced through the night 

    F
The boys of the NYPD choir 
     C     Am
Were singing 'Galway Bay' 
C   F
And the bells were ringing 
 G  C
Out for Christmas Day 


Mellanspel: C G C F G C x2


 C
You're a bum 

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

    C
You scum bag 
    
You maggot 
    G
You're cheap & your haggard 
      C     F
Happy Christmas your arse 
       G
I pray God 
 C
It's our last 


    F
The boys of the NYPD choir 
     C     Am
Were singing 'Galway Bay' 
C   F
And the bells were ringing 
 G  C
Out for Christmas Day 


Mellanspel: C F C Dm7 G x2


     C
I could have been someone 
      F
Well so could anyone 
    C
You took my dreams 
     G
From 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 
             G       C
I've built my dreams around you 

    F
The boys of the NYPD choir 
     C     Am
Were singing 'Galway Bay' 
C   F
And the bells were ringing 
 G  C
Out for Christmas Day
