Kids At Christmas Pt.2 Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I was 17, it was
Christmas
[C]Eve, you were older than me
Only [D]went for that drink
cause you said I could in
I'd been work[C]ing like a dog all week
The [D]place was rammed,
to check out the band
Everybody [C]from home was there
They'd sing and [D]dance like
Mick
Jagger
And from be[C]hind, he had the hair
At the en[Em]d of the night,
they [D]tried to cool time
[G]Ain't you got a place to [C]go?
But the [Em]band were on fire,
[D]nobody was tired
We said [G]no, no, [C]no
And when the band refused to fin[D]ish
The barman [G]poured [D]himself a
[Em]Guinness
[D]And we dra[C]nk the place dry
And [D]danced like kids at
[C]Christ[G]mas
[D]We [G]were singing
[C]Sha -la -la -la -la, [D]sha -la -la -la -la
[G]Sha [D]-la -la -la -la [Em]-la[D]
[C]Sha -la -la -la -la, [D]sha -la -la -la, oh,
[G]God, that band could [C]play
Drink the place dry and
[D]dance like kids at
[C]Christ[G]mas[Am]
[G]It was nea[D]rly half to when
I finally found you
And we [C]both was drunk
more than we should
The neigh[D]bours complained
but the music still came
And, [C]damn, it never felt so good
Cos [D]they played nothing new,
just rock and roll tunes
And [C]everybody sang along
The drummer [D]took off his shirt
The singer called him a jerk
And the [C]girls screamed, let's get it on
He took [Em]you outside
You [D]asked for a light
I said, do [G]you [Bm]have a [G]place to [C]go?
You [Em]thought for a while
Clos[D]ing your eyes
You said, [Bm]no, [G]no, no
[C]While we were stealing kis[D]ses
The [G]band [D]refused to fin[Em]ish
[D]And we [C]drank the place dry
And [D]dance like kids at
[C]Christmas
[G]We [Am]were [G]singing
[C]Sha -la -la -la -la, [D]sha -la -la -la -la
[G]Sha [D]-la -la -la -la -ling
[C]Sha -la -la -la -la, [D]sha -la -la -la
Oh,
[G]God, that band com[C]plained
And drank the place dry
And [D]danced like kids at
[C]Christmas[G][Am][G][C][D][G][C][D]
[G]
[C][D][G][D][Em][D][C][D]
[C][G][Am]
[G]We all [D]moved on, got new jobs
Everybody [C]I knew seems to leave
We [D]make our homes wherever we go,
I don't go out [C]now on
Christmas
Eve
The [D]pub was shut down, the owner left town,
ran [C]off with the barmaid and ran
But I'll re[D]member that night for the rest of my life,
and [C]this is how I think it went
And the band refused to fin[D]ish,
the bar[G]maid [D]she was liv[Em]in'
[D]But we drank [C]the place dry and
[D]danced like kids at
Christ[C]mas[G]
[Am]We w[G]ere singing
[C]Sha la la la la,
[D]Sha la la la la,
Sha la la la la [Em]la
[D]Sha [C]la la la la,
[D]Sha la la la la,
Out[G]side is
Christmas
[C]Day
Sha la la la la,
[D]Sha la la la la,
[G]Sha [D]la la la la [Em]la[D]
[C]Sha -la -la -la -la, [D]sha -la -la -la -la,
oh, [G]got that band to [C]play
We drank the place dry and [D]danced like
We [Bm]drank the [G]place dry and [C]danced like
We drank the place dry and
[D]danced like kings at
Christ[C]mas[G][Am]
