Piano Intro
C/G – Strum once
Verse 1:
Well, I wish I was in New York this morning
Sittin’ all alone
The sun on Central Park in my eyes
And, the pigeons on the Savings and Loan
Verse 2:
Hey, I wish I was in New York this morning
Drinkin’ from a paper cup, yeah,
Robust of beans and fashion magazines
And, people everytime you look up
Chorus:
I’d go right out tonight
I’d probably take the bus
Right down to St. Patrick’s Cathedral
Light a candle for us
Verse 3:
Well, I never thought we build our love
With rags and bones and nails
I know sometimes my words come out
Like an empty shotgun shell
Chorus:
But, I shaved my face
Stepped over the laundry in the stairs
It’s that time of year
For watching comets in the air
Verse 4:
Hey, I wish I was in New York this morning
Sittin’ all by myself
In the land where father and son relations
Goes deeper than a coastal shelf
Chorus:
I’d go right out tonight
I’d probably take the bus
Right down to St. Patrick’s Cathedral baby
Light a candle for us
Bridge:
Now, I know everybody’s looking for something
Piston’s holdin’ out for a spark
Well, I’m not waitin’ on nothin’ if I’m out walking the
Sidewalks after
Dark, hey!
Harmonica Solo
Chorus:
But, I shaved my face
Stepped over the laundry in the stairs
It’s that time of year
For watching comets in the air
Verse 5:
Well, I wish I was in New York this morning
Sittin’ all alone
The sun on Central Park in my eyes
And, the pigeons on the Savings and Loan
