    *
    Said, hey little girl
    Take me by the hand
    Walk with me down this boardwalk
    One last time again
         
    Well see those pretty pier lights
                          
    Hear those carnival sounds
                
    Well we'll stop right at the top tonight
                               
    When the ferris wheel goes round


    
    And I sang for these tourists
    And dreamed life on the water
    When the dream it gets broken
    'Cause life it gets harder and harder
   
    Leave this candy apple town behind
                          
    Get out while I still can
              
    Going to New York City
                          
    With this guitar in my hand

                       
    And wishing these stars too long
                     
    Playing in these bars too long
                         
    And hold up in your arms too long
                                
    Been a prisoner of my heart too long


             
    Going to New York City
                          
    And find out where I stand
                  
    And I'll be walking down Broadway
                         
    With this guitar in my hand

    NOTE: *F/G  is played like this [x x 3 2 1 3]


    NOTE: The words and chords were taken directly from the
          VHS movie "EDDIE AND THE CRUISERS II - EDDIE LIVES".
          I noticed that on the soundtrack the N.Y.C. Song
          (Cafferty) - 5:07 is a lot longer..............
