New York City SONG (N.Y.C. SONG)
JOHN CAFFFERTY
I said, hey little girl
Take me by the hand
Walk with me down this boardwalk
One last time again
We're gonna see those pretty pier lights
Hear those carnival sounds
Well we'll stop right at the top tonight
As this ferris wheel goes round
Now you say that I'm wrestless
You don't understand
Tomorrow I'll be leavin' on that mornin' train
I'm gonna leave this candy apple town behind
And get out while I still can
I'm goin to New York City
With this guitar in my hand
And I've been wishin' on these stars too long
And I've been playing in these bars too long
I've been hold up in your arms too long
I've been a prisoner of my heart too long
I'm goin to New York City
To find out where I stand
And I'll be walking down Broadway
With this guitar in my hand
** Guitar Solo ** (Pick down and up through G, C9 and D chords - listen to the song to get the feel)
Now I sing for these tourists
Bout' a dream life on the water
But when that dream gets broken
This life gets harder and harder
I gotta leave this candy apple town behind
And get out while I still can
I'm goin' to New York City
With this guitar in my hand
And I've been wishin' on these stars too long
And I've been playing in these bars too long
I've been hold up in your arms too long
I've been a prisoner of my heart too long
I'm goin to New York City
To find out where I stand
And I'll be walking down Broadway
With this guitar in my hand
