Been on this boat for almost 20 days
           Am           G
20 days is long time on boat

                    C                G       G  F#  F
I've had nothing to do but watch the waves
                   Am          G
Count each on of my dying days

                  C             G      G  F#  F
I once had a child I once had a wife
                    Am                G
I lost everything I loved In just one night

               C                 G          G  F#  F
Now I’m just a hope’n the rumors are true
                      Am          G
When I see Lady Liberty I better be through

C                G          Am
They say there’s freedom in New York
C                       G             Am
That the buildings grow tall and hope lines the walls
C                G          Am
They say there’s freedom in New York

             G                F         Am
That its the closest thing to home I’ll ever know
             G                F         Am
That its the closest thing to home I’ll ever know

( G  F  Am  G )

Today I got off the boat
                          Am           G
Off the boat and into the fire as they say

                C                       G        G  F#  F
You gotta fight hard to keep your shoes shined
               Am                   G
Let alone stay alive in a city this grand

C                G          Am
They say there’s freedom in New York
C             G                Am
And wow those buildings really are quite tall
C                G          Am
They say there’s freedom in New York

G              F    Am
God I’ve never felt so damn small
G                 F    Am
No god I’ve never felt so damn small
G              F    Am
God I’ve never felt so damn small
