Dont Wish Me Happy Christmas

G C G D G D G C G Christmas time is here again, the snow is just begun C G D And I hear music playing on every corner that I turn G C G The cold North winds are blowing, and they cut me to the bone C G D G For the only clothes that I possess are the ones that I've got on. D G C G This damn city never sleeps around this time of year C G D There's late night bars and discotheques, and carols fill the air G C G Everyone is happy, as they sing out merrily C G D G Two blocks down from this old bench that makes a bed for me N.C. G C G So don't wish me "Happy Christmas", I can't live on words alone C G D And your kind thoughts won't take the chill from these arthritic bones G C G And I don't need your pity - I've still got a little pride C G D G But I'd gladly swap these lonely streets for a home at Christmas time G C G D G G G C G Christmas time will roll on by, another year will come C G D And I'll be left to walk these streets, in a city I call home G C G But as you count your presents while you decorate the tree C G D G I wonder how you'd feel my friend, if it were you instead of me N.C. G C G So don't wish me "Happy Christmas", I can't live on words alone C G D And your kind thoughts won't take the chill from these arthritic bones G C G And I don't need your pity - I've still got a little pride C G D G G But I'd gladly swap these lonely streets for a home at Christmas time C G D G Yes I'd gladly swap these lonely streets for a home at Christmas time
