Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][D][F][G]
[C][C]

[Verse 1]
She [C]came to me shortly after Chr[D]istmas
[F]Said she hated [G]spoiling New Year's [C]Eve
But the truth doesn't wait to come in [D]season
And [F]what we had [G]feared was now beli[C]eved

[Verse 2]
She [C]said she'd leave come Monday [D]mornin'
[F]Catch a plane [G]if I'd split the [C]fare
She had friends who lived in New York [D]City
She'd [F]look them up and [G]have the baby [C]there

[Chorus 1]
And [F]now she's alone in New York [C]City
[F]Livin' like Lord I wonder [C]how
An [Am]angel in hell in New York [D]City
But [F]I can't t[G]hink about that n[C]ow
[D][F][Am]

[Verse 3]
[D]Honey, will you tell him Bible [E]stories
And [G]give him all the [A]love I never [D]could?
But never tell him too much about his [E]daddy
'Cause [G]there's not too [A]much to say
that's [D]good

[Verse 4]
He'll [D]have to learn it all from his [E]mother
[G]How to count and [A]say his AB[D]C's
But when you teach him prayers
to say at [E]bedtime
[G]Leave out "God bless [A]daddy,"
won't you [D]please?

[Chorus 2]
And [G]now they're alone in New York [D]City
[G]Livin' like, Lord, I wonder [D]how
Two [Bm]angels in hell in New York [E]City
But [G]I can't t[A]hink about that n[D]ow[Bm]
[G]I can't t[A]hink about that n[D]ow
[D]
