G            C        Am    D
New York, to that tall skyline I come,
       Em        C              D
flying in from London to your door.
     G             C        Am      D
New York, looking down on Central Park,
          Em                   C       D    G
Where they say you should not wander after dark.

     G            C           Am        D
New York, like a scene from all those movies,
          Em              C                  Am
But you're real enough to me, for there's a heart,
   C        D                G
A heart that lives in New York.

    Bm                              C
A heart in New York, a rose on the street,
 Am                      Em
I write my song to that city heartbeat.
   Bm                               C
A heart in New York, a love in her eye,
    Am               Em                   D
an open door and a friend for the night.

     G              C    Am       D
New York, you got money on your mind,
      Em                 C               D
And my words won't make a dime's worth of difference,
    Am       C          D
so here's to you New York.

     G            C        Am       D
New York, now my plane is touching down.
