It is Bono, yeah.
Bono was struggling recently, so he gave me a call,
see if he wanted to come down.

You know, I don't think you're tough enough.

That's not Bono.

_ _ _ _ Did anyone here else guys do a version of a song today?
I think_ You did? _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ You might have guessed, I don't know the lyrics.
I'm sorry.
You were the [B] lyrics.
_ _ [G#] So, we're going to do a song.
It is Christmas.
_ _ [G] _ [D] We're going to do a song, the greatest song_
The greatest [G] Christmas song ever written.
Possibly the greatest song [D] ever written.
Certainly the greatest Irish song, in my opinion, ever written.
It's a song called Fairytale of New York.
[G#] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ This one's from Matt, from Coatstone. _
Alright.
In this Christmas [D] Eve _ _
And in [G] a jar of time
_ _ I know [D] a woman sent to me
[Bm] _ I want to [A] see in a while _
[D] A nice summer song
I got [B] around, almost [G] drowned
I [D] turned my face away
And [E] dreamed about [D] you
Got on the look-a-way
I came [G] and it seemed to warn [E] me
Well, I got a feeling
That _ [Bm] she is for me _
[A] So, happy [D] Christmas
Everybody.
I [G] love you, baby Oh, yeah!
I can see a [D] better time
When [F#m] all the trees will [D] grow
_ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [D] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ They said once these gardens would go to the flow
And the wind would get right through you
No [A] place for the old
It took mine and the last three
You promised me
When it's [D] wintery
You will get it
You know you'll get it
When the band finish playing
They are the homeboys
You should have just seen
All the drunk neighbors singing
We kissed on the corner
Then [E] we left you there
I'm the boy in the ivory
Boy, I'm the one [F#m] singing
Go [Bm] away, baby
[D] I'm the bell to ring [A] it out
For Christmas Day
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ [D] _ You're a little slutty chick
Like a man on the ground
I'm a chicken, not a man
You're a little fag, you're a maggot
You're a cheap, lousy faggot
Merry Christmas, you're on [G] such great
You're the boy in the ivory
Boy, [D] I'm the one singing
[F#] Go away, baby
[D] I'm the bell to [A] ring it out
For [D] Christmas Day _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ I could love this one
Well, I'm so [G] kind
And _ you took [D] my jeans for [Bm] me
Well, [A] not the first time, too
[D] I kept them with me, babe
But I put them [G] with my own
Can't make it all alone
You were tucking my jeans around me
[G] I'm the boy in the ivory
[D] Boy, I'm the one singing
Go [B] away, baby
[D] I'm the bell to [A] ring it out
For [D] Christmas Day
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
