[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F][C][F][Dm][Gm]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[C]New York City gripped [F]me,
like a [C]big old machine
[Dm]I went[C] into one side[F]
and [Dm]landed in a [Gm]dream
[G]It sti[C]rred me up and made
[F]me shout
And some[C]times I for[Dm]got about
[F]The way[C] the wind blows in [F]and out
The [Dm]cot tonwood [Gm]trees
[Dm]And

[Verse 2]
[E]oh, it's easy [F]to lose [Dm]your[F] mind
I [Dm]might've lost mine
[Gm]If I hadn't [G]fou[Gm]nd you[G]

[Verse 3]
The [C]avenues, [F]the boulevards
[C]Businesses and [F]school yards
[C]Shopping malls and [Dm]mo torcars
All in one [Gm]scene
[G]The

[Verse 4]
[C]lowest lows, and the [F]highest highs
The [C]meanest noise and
the [F]lullabies
[C]The poison and the com[F]promise
The [Dm]unspoken [Gm]scream
[G]And

[Verse 5]
[E]oh, it's so hard [Dm]to find [F]your place
And I [Dm]never found mine
If I hadn't [Gm]seen your face
[G][Gm][G]

[Verse 6]
[C]And you can be my B[F]uster K[C]eaton,
I'll [F]be Blossom [C]Dearie
We [F]can see the world so
[Dm]clearly[Gm]
[C]You'll colour the grey [F]away
[C]I will sing you song[F]s all day
The [C]decay will just [F]turn to blue moons
As [Dm]we look at the [Gm]good old- fashioned
[C]moon[F][C]
[F][C][F]

[Verse 7]
[Dm][Gm]
Well, [C]New York City split
[F]me like a [C]log [F]in a mill
[C]Half of [F]me happy, the [Dm]other half [Gm]ill
[G]But I feel [C]myself a- warm
[F]ing to the [C]old neon [F]chill
I [C]still feel a long[F]ing,
[Dm]but its chased by [Gm]a thrill

[Verse 8]
And [E]oh, its so hard to [Dm]find [F]your place
I'd [Dm]never found mine
If I hadn't [Gm]seen [F]your face[Dm]
[F]And

[Verse 9]
[C]you can be my [F]Buster [C]Keaton,
I'll be [F]Blossom [C]Dearie
We can [F]see the world so
[Dm]clearly[Gm]
[C]You'll colour the grey [F]away
And [C]I will sing you song[F]s all day
The [C]decay will just [F]turn to blue moons
[Dm]We look at the g[Gm]ood old- fashioned
[C]moon[F]

[Outro 1]
