Verse 1:

G A gentle snow came drifting down C that falls on skid row too D And on the curb there sat a child G His little cheeks turned blue G He watched the neon cross the way C Looked up and said to me G Daddy's drinking up our Christmas D G In that bar across the street
C In that bar across the street G There's a woman Daddy knows C And every time it's payday night G D That's right where Daddy goes G I left my Momma cryin' C She'll cry herself to sleep G Daddy's drinking up our Christmas D G In that bar across the street
Instrumental D G

Verse 2:

G I stood there on the corner C A sick man down and sad D You see, I'd just been heading to G That bar the child described G But here's one foolish father C That honky tonks won't beat G It could have been my son who spoke D G These words upon the street
C In that bar across the street G There's a woman Daddy knows C And every time it's payday night G D That's right where Daddy goes G I left my Momma cryin' C She'll cry herself to sleep G Daddy's drinking up our Christmas D G In that bar across the street
