Chords for Christy Moore Fairytale of New York.

[C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ Thank you very much everybody.
_ _ I was [F#] walking on the Hammersmith Broadway one [G#] night
Maybe 10 or 20 or 30 years [C#] ago
I can never remember which but I heard a man from [F#] Tipperary singing this song and
[G#] Asked him to sing it again and again and again until I had the [C#] words and then I started singing it myself
_ It was [G#] Christmas [C#] Eve, babe _ _ _
_ in [F#] the drunk tank _ _
_ and [C#] a man said son _ I
Won't [G#] see another one _ _ and [C#] then he sang a song _
_ the [F#] rare
Mountain dew _ I
[C#] Turned my eyes away _ and [F#] [G#] thought about _ [C#] You
_ God [G#] _ _
I'm [C#] the lucky one
_ Came in [F#] at 18 to one _ _
I've [C#] got a feeling
_ _ [F#] This [G#] year's for me and you happy _ _
_ [C#] Christmas _ _ _ how I [F#] love you, baby _ _ _
There's gonna [C#] be good times
_ [F#] When [G#] all our _ dreams [C#] come true
_ [G#] They _ [C#] got cars biggest bars.
They got rivers [F#] of gold [C#] the wind blows right through you.
It's no [G#] place for the old
_ [C#] When the first took your hand on the cold [G#] Christmas Eve
[C#] Oh, but told [F#] you that Broadway [G#] waiting [C#] for me
You were handsome and pretty Queen of New York City when the band [F#] finished [G#] playing the crowd howled for [C#] more
Sinatra was singing and all the crowd they were [G#] swinging
[C#] Oh, we kissed [F#] on the corner [G#] and we danced around [C#] the floor [F#] and the boys from the _ _ NYTD [G#] choir [C#] were singing _
[G#] [A#m] Galway Bay [G#] and the bells [F#] were [G#] ringing out on Christmas [C#] Day _
_ [F#] _ Though _ _ _ _
[C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
[G#] _ _ _ [F#] _ [G#] _ _ I could [C#] have been someone _ _ and so [F#] could anyone _ I _
[C#] Took my dreams from you.
_ Oh
When I first [G#] met you _ I _
[C#] Kept them with me, babe
_ And I put [F#] them with my own
_ Can't make [C#] it all alone
_ [F#] I've [G#] built some of the dreams [C#] around you _
[G#] Well, _ _ [C#] you're a bum you're a punk you're an owl [F#] who run junk [C#] layin there under the roof nearly [G#] dead in the bed
_ Yes, come back you maggot [C#] yet she blows the faggot
I think [F#] Christmas me ass [G#] Oh my brother [C#] be dead [F#] and the boys from the _ _ NYPD
[G#] choir [C#] were singing
_ [G#] [A#m] Galway Bay
_ [C#] And the bells were ringing [G#] out on Christmas [C#] Day.
Oh, I love you, [F#] _ baby
_ _ I've [C#] got a feeling
_ [G#] This year's for me and you happy _ _ _ [C#]
Christmas.
_ _ _ Oh, I love [F#] you, baby
_ _ There's gonna [C#] be good times
_ When [F#] [G#] all our dreams [C#] come true
_ [G#] So _ happy [C#] Christmas.
I love you, baby said _
[G#m] Shane McGowan [C#] from Pucon and the County Tipperary one grand Friday morning
I took him by the hand and I gazed into his Tipperary eyes and I I kissed him on the lips
I said hey Shane.
I love you too, baby.
