Kind Of Christmas Card

D B
All you folks back home
F# A
I'll never tell you this
D B
you're not supposed to know
A
where your daughter is
G
there are ways of life
 A  B
you never understood
G A A
it's right here downtown Hollywood
G A
it's afternoon on Sunset Boulevard
B
I´ve got a stolen moment trying hard
A
to write a kind
G
a kind of Christmascard
CHORUS
A D B F#  A
But I---am burning out again
D B F# A
Toni---ght there is fever in my veins
D B
Mama dear all the love you gave
D F#
I guess there´s really nothing
A
nothing much to save
G A
I see this place
B
It is dirty as I feel myself
G A D
There are still som riches at the Roosevelt
A G
That evening prayer those memorise in my little bedroom,
B
mama, on my knees
A G
That´s i´m at down in Los Angeles
CHORUS
And I---am burning out again
And I---must rise above the shame
Toni---ght there is fever in my veins
G A B
Or just think of the girl I used to be
A G
You were my age once mama
A D
Twentythree
D A B
I can still hear some of the songs you used to play
A B
From that summer of love in ´68
A G
It seems it turned into a a winter of hate
CHORUS
And I---am burning out again
It´s time i´d rise above the pain
Toni---ght there is fever in my veins
Toni---ght there is fever in my veins
