INTRO:   Bb    Bb    Bb     Bb
         F#    F#    Db     Ab

Bb
New York City  The money sucked it dry
F#
Pull the culture from out the streets
Db          Ab
It's all so gentrified
Bb
Alphabet city or down on 42nd street
F#
Or the Lower East Side
Db                     Ab
There was violence in the streets

CHORUS
Bb                                                          F#
The greatest city of them all But it just don't feel the same
Db              Ab
I miss the old New York
Bb                                                            F#
The tallest buildings in the world But it just don't look the same
Db              Ab
I miss the old New York

Bb
The Bowery slums Turned into fashion boutiques
F#
Where's all the gangs
Db                 Ab
Drug dealers and the freaks
Bb
The Big Apple has lost its taste 10 million people 
F#
trying just to survive
Db                Ab
This fucking urban waste

[Chorus]

BDA K: (I'm not sure if this bit is correct....any help please?)
Ab
The old graffiti trains Can't see out the window
F#                    Db
Gotta watch your back Or you might get jacked
