Christy Moore - Fairytale Of New York Chords & Tabs

Fairytale Of New York:

This is the way he played it on jools holland, Capo on First fret.

Basically chords like this for first two verses:
C	F	C	G
C	F	C	G
C	G

And then a slight change to:
C	F	C	G
C	G	C	F
G	C

Then the third part is:
C
C	F	G	C
C
C	F	G	C
F	C	A
C	F	G	C

It's just that repeated. But here how the timing is roughly.

C			F

And then he sang a song The Rare Old Mountain Dew
C		                 G           C           G
I turned my face away and dreamed about you.

Got on a lucky one came in eighteen to one
I've got a feeling this year's for me and you
So happy Christmas, I love you baby
There's gonna be some goodtime when all our dreams come true

C				F
They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold
C				G
But the wind goes right through you; it's no place for the old
C				G
When you first took my hand, on a cold Christmas Eve
C		F		G		C
You promised me Broadway was waiting for me.

When the band finished playing they howled out for more
C
Sinatra was swinging, all the drunks they were singing
C                     F                      G                            C
We kissed on a corner then danced through the night.
