* Denotes single strum
There's a pale winter moon in the sky coming through my window
And the park is laid out like a bed below
* * * *
It's a cold dark night and my heart melts like the snow
* * * * [Fig. 1]
And the bells of New York City tell me not to go

* Denotes single strum
It's always this time of year that my thoughts undo me
With the ghosts of many lifetimes all abound
* * * *
But from these mad heights I can always hear the sound
* * * * [Fig. 1]
Of the bells of New York City singing all around

Bridge (6/8)
==============================
Stay with me
Stay with me
A refuge from these broken dreams
Wait right here
Awake with me
On silent snow-filled streets
==============================
==============================
* Denotes single strum
Sing to me one song for joy and one for redemption
And whatever's in between that I call mine
* * * *
With the street lamp light to illuminate the grey
* * * * * *
And the bells of New York City calling me to stay
* * * * [Fig. 1]
The bells of New York City calling me to stay.
