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