[Verse]
A                               Dmaj7 
New York isn't New York without you, love 
A                            Dmaj7 
So far in a few blocks to be so low 
        Bm                  E 
And if I call you from First Avenue 
                 D    A     D      A      D    A  D   A   D        A 
Where you're the only motherfucker in the city   who can handle me
[Verse]
A                                  D 
New love wasn't true love, back to you, love 
A                                D 
So much for a home run with some blue bloods 
         Bm                    E 
If I last-strawed you on Eighth Avenue 
                 D    A     D      A      D    A  D   A  D        A 
Where you're the only motherfucker in the city   who can stand me
[Chorus]
       Bm 
I have lost a hero 
       C#m 
I have lost a friend 
        D 
But for you, darling 
          E 
I'd do it all again  
       Bm 
I have lost a hero 
       C#m 
I have lost a friend 
        D 
But for you, darling 
          E 
I'd do it all again
[Verse]
A                               Dmaj7 
New York isn't New York without you, love 
A                                Dmaj7 
Too few of our old crew, left on Astor 
       Bm                       E 
So if I trade our 'hood for some Hollywood 
                 D    A     D      A      D    A  D   A 
Where you're the only motherfucker in the city   who would 
D    A     D      A      D    A  D   A 
Only motherfucker in the city   who would 
D    A     D      A      D    A  D     A D    A 
Only motherfucker in the city   who'd forgive me
[Chorus]
       Bm 
I have lost a hero 
       C#m 
I have lost a friend 
        D 
But for you, darling 
          E 
I'd do it all again  
       Bm 
I have lost a hero 
       C#m 
I have lost a friend 
        D 
But for you, darling 
          E 
I'd do it all again
