C D7
She came to me shortly after Christmas
F G7 C
Said she hated spoiling New Year's Eve
D7
But the truth doesn't wait to come in season
F G7 C
And what we had feared was now believed
D7
She said she'd leave come Monday mornin'
F G7 C
Catch a plane if I'd split the fare
D7
She said she had friends in New York City
F G7 C
She'd look them up and have the baby there
F C
And now she's alone in New York City
F C
Livin' like Lord I wonder how
Am D7
An angel in hell in New York City
F G7 C
But I can't think about that now
D7
Honey will you tell him Bible stories
F G7 C
And give him all the love I never could
D7
But never tell him too much about his daddy
F G7 C
Cause there's not much to say that's good
D7
He'll have to learn it all from his mother
F G7 C
How to count and say his ABC's
D7
But when you teach him prayers to say at bedtime
F G7 C
Leave off God bless daddy won't you please
F C
And now they're alone in New York City
F C
Livin' like Lord I wonder how
Am D7
Two angels in hell in New York City
F G7 C
But I can't think about that now
F G7 C
I can't think about that now
