[Verse 1]

G C Am D

We walked down the street as the snow started falling

G C Em D

Stamping our feet all the taxi cab crawling

C Am Em Dm

You said I'm so cold I canât remember my name

And I said the same

C Am D

He took her photo and said he adored her

G C Em D

A New York martini it literally floored her

C Am Em D

And we played Miss America over again

And again and again

[Chorus]

Em C D G

Oh and that was a New York Christmas baby

Em C D G

It was the way it should be done

Em C Em C

Oh we saw the sights, tinsel and lights

G Em C D

Looking down the barrel of a gun

[Verse 2]

G C Am D

Now years have gone by and weâre all so much older

The winters gone warmer than last years got colder

C Am Em Dm

And we all have some things about how the time goes

That we rather not know

[Chorus]

Em C D G C D

Oh that, was a New York Christmas baby

Em C D G C D

Snowflakes like diamonds in her hair

Em C Em C

And we watched them all, sparkle and fall

G Em C D

Something almost true was in the air

Em C D G C D

Yeah that, was a new york Christmas baby

Em C D G C D

Yeah that, was the way it was back then

Em C Em C

Oh we saw the sights, tinsel and lights

G Em C

You kissed in the snow and that was when

G Em C

I feel in love with Christmas once again
