Rudy
The Be Good Tanyas
G
(início)
G Rudy lives on the borderline C D Between civilization and basic survival G D Em And the summertime treats him fairly well C D But the wintertime is a bitter cold rival G It's wintertime now in Georgetown C D The streets come alive with the Christmas lights G D Em And Rudy sleeps on a warm air grate C D With a newspaper blanket on December nights
Chorus
D Deck the halls C Rudolph the red-nosed wino G Knows it's Christmas time D Em Jingle Bells and Christmas shoppers C D Dashing through the snow C D God rest ye merry gentlemen G D Who have found it in your hearts Em To flip Rudy a thin C D And I'll be home for Christmas C But this man has D G No place to go
Verse
G Christmas has no meaning at all C D To the people of greed and incredible waste G D They seek the deeper meaning Em In a shopping mall C In a yuletide spirit D Of impatience and haste G Rudy is a patient man C D Who tries to see the beauty in everything G D Em Yes, and not a very demanding soul C Whose only wish is D G To live until the Spring
Verse
G Nobody knows the reasons why C Things turn out D Like the way they do G D And there ain't no one to tell you Em The reasons why C There's fortunate folks D Like me and you G Rudy must have people somewhere C Who wonder what D Became of the man G D And Rudy must wonder Em The same damn thing C As the crowd passes by D G And he sticks out his hand
Chorus
D Deck the halls C Rudolph the red-nosed wino G Knows it's Christmas time D Em Jingle Bells and Christmas Shoppers C D Dashing through the snow C D God rest ye merry gentlemen G D Who have found it in your hearts Em To flip Rudy a thin C D And I'll be home for Christmas C But this man has D G No place to go
Verse
G Rudy died on the borderline C Of a civilized world D On Christmas Eve G D You know the shoppers shopped Em And the temperatures dropped C On a man whose absence D Won't be grieved G Peace on the soul of the cop C Who found him in a booth D With his hand froze to a telephone G D You know, I think I know Em Who he had on the line C And Rudy won't spend D G This Christmas alone
Chorus
D Deck the halls C Rudolph the red-nosed wino G Knows it's Christmas time D Em Jingle Bells and Christmas Shoppers C D Dashing through the snow C D God rest ye merry gentlemen G D Who have found it in their hearts Em To flip Rudy a thin C D And I'll be home for Christmas And this year C D G Rudy gets to go C D Yeah, I'll be home for Christmas C D G And this year, Rudy gets to go
