    A                 Bm           D
We walked down the street as the snow started
 E
falling
  A           Bm           D         E
Stamping our feet all the taxi cab crawling
         D           A/C#      G         E
You said I'm so cold I cant remember my name
                A
And I said the same

He took her photo and said he adored her
In New York martini it literally floored her
And we played Miss America over again
And again and again

Chorus:
       F#m         D          E       A  C#m
Oh and that was a New York Christmas baby
F#m         D       E        A  C#m
It was the way it should be done
   F#m         D     E  F#m       D  E
Oh we saw the sights, tinsel and lights
 A                C#m         D  E
Looking down the barrel of a gun

The winters gone warmer than last years got colder
And we all have some things about how the time goes
That we rather not know
Oh, the light was a New York Christmas baby

Snowflakes like diamonds in her hair
And we watched them all, sparkle and fall
Something almost true was in the air
Yeah that, was a New York Christmas baby

Chorus:
Yeah that, was the way it was back then
Oh we saw the sights, tinsel and lights
You kissed in the snow and that was when
I feel in love with Christmas once again
