[Intro]
E Amaj7
Ooohh New York x2
[Verse]
E Amaj7
Grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes
E Amaj7
Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean
E Amaj7
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say
E Amaj7
Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway
[Chorus]
G#
Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams
Amaj7
Baby, I'm from New York
E
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
B
There's nothing you can't do
Amaj7
Now you're in New York
E
These streets will make you feel brand new
B
Big lights will inspire you
Amaj7
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!
[Verse]
E Amaj7
On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew, ladies work so hard
E Amaj7
Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God
E Amaj7
Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
E Amaj7
Some will sleep tonight with a hunger for more than an empty fridge
[Chorus]
G#
I'm gonna make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams
Amaj7
Baby, I'm from New York
E
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
B
There's nothing you can't do
Amaj7
Now you're in New York
E
These streets will make you feel brand new
B
Big lights will inspire you
Amaj7
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York
[Bridge]
Amaj7
One hand in the air for the big city,
Amaj7
Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty
B
No place in the world that can compare
C#m G#
Put your lighters in the air, everybody say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Amaj7
In New York
E
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
B
There's nothing you can't do
Amaj7
Now you're in New York
E
These streets will make you feel brand new
B
Big lights will inspire you
Amaj7
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!
