New York City SONG (N.Y.C. SONG)
JOHN CAFFFERTY
G
I said, hey little girl
Take me by the hand
Walk with me down this boardwalk
One last time again
C9
We're gonna see those pretty pier lights
G
Hear those carnival sounds
D
Well we'll stop right at the top tonight
c G
As this ferris wheel goes round
G
Now you say that I'm wrestless
You don't understand
Tomorrow I'll be leavin' on that mornin' train
C9
I'm gonna leave this candy apple town behind
G
And get out while I still can
D
I'm goin to New York City
c G
With this guitar in my hand
C9
And I've been wishin' on these stars too long
G
And I've been playing in these bars too long
C9
I've been hold up in your arms too long
G
I've been a prisoner of my heart too long

C9
I'm goin to New York City
G
To find out where I stand
D
And I'll be walking down Broadway
c G
With this guitar in my hand
** Guitar Solo ** (Pick down and up through G, C9 and D chords - listen to the song to get the feel)
G
Now I sing for these tourists
Bout' a dream life on the water
But when that dream gets broken
This life gets harder and harder
C9
I gotta leave this candy apple town behind
G
And get out while I still can
D
I'm goin' to New York City
c G
With this guitar in my hand
G C9
And I've been wishin' on these stars too long
G
And I've been playing in these bars too long
C9
I've been hold up in your arms too long
G
I've been a prisoner of my heart too long
C9
I'm goin to New York City
G
To find out where I stand
D
And I'll be walking down Broadway
c G
With this guitar in my hand
