(Verse 1)
Call on your (C)angels, come down to the (G)city

(Chorus)
And I'm (D)sending you a Mer-(C)ry New York (G)Christmas
And a (D)prayer for peace on Earth (C) within our time (G)
Yeah, the (Em)sidewalk angels echo “Halle-(C)lujah"
And we under(G)stand them, now (D)more than ever
 
(Verse 2)
So call on your (C)angels, you're beaten (G)and broken
It's time that we (D)mend them, so they don't fade with the (G)season
Let our mercy be the (C)gifts we lay, from Brookland (Em)to Broadway,
And celebrate, (D)each and every day of this New York City (G)Christmas.
 
(Chorus)
And I'm (D)sending you a (C)Merry New York (G)Christmas
And a (D)prayer for peace on Earth (C) within our time (G)
Yeah, the (Em)sidewalk angels echo “Halle-(C)lujah"
And we under-(G)stand them, now (D)more than ever
