Fairytale of New York - Sheryl Crow
(Chorus)
Oh, the cold December winds will whistle and shriek
Oh, I heard a man on broadway say
This time of year in New York gets rough
Oh, but you know what they say
It's a fairytale of New York
It's a dream that you'll forget
It's a heartache you'll remember
When you're gone from here
(Verse 1)
And the drunks on the street will laugh and sing along
Oh, and the girls in their heels will stumble along
Oh, and they'll say that they're happy
But I know they're not
(Chorus)
Oh, the cold December winds will whistle and shriek
Oh, I heard a man on broadway say
This time of year in New York gets rough
Oh, but you know what they say
It's a fairytale of New York
It's a dream that you'll forget
It's a heartache you'll remember
When you're gone from here
(Bridge)
And the lights will shine on the tree
And the angels sing in the sky
But I won't be here to see it
Oh, I'll be far away
(Chorus)
Oh, the cold December winds will whistle and shriek
Oh, they say there's snow on the ground
And everyone says it's a wonder
Oh, but it won't feel like home without you around
So take my advice, leave it all behind you now
Go and make a new start in New York tonight
Go and find your fairytale in New York tonight
(Outro)
Oh, it's a fairytale of New York (x2)
It's a dream that you'll forget (x2)
It's a heartache you'll remember (x2)
When you're gone from here (x2)
