It was Christmas Eve babe,

in the drunktank

An old man said to me,

won\'t see another one

The Rare Old Mountain Dew

I turned my face away
G C
and dreamed about you

Got on a lucky one,

came in eighteen to one

I\'ve got a feeling

So happy Christmas,

I love you baby
C
I can see a better
G
time when all our dreams
C
come true
[Verse 3]
C
They\'ve got cars
G
Big as bars
Am F
They\'ve got rivers of gold
C
But the wind goes
right through you
G
It\'s no place for the old
C Am
When you first took my hand
C F
On a cold Christmas Eve
C
You promised me
G C
Broadway was waiting for me
[Verse 4]
C
You were handsome
You were pretty
G
Queen of New York City
C
When the band
F
finished playing
G C
They howled out for more
C
Sinatra was swinging
All the drunks they
G
were singing
C F
We kissed on the corner
G C
Then danced through the night
