Ooohh New York (2x)
E Amaj7
1. Grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes
Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are
mean
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say
Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway
As
X: Even if it ain’t all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams
Amaj7
R: Baby, I'm from New York
E
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
H
There's nothing you can't do
Amaj7
Now you're in New York
E
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Amaj7
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!
2. On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew, ladies work so hard
Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God
Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
Some will sleep tonight with a hunger for more than an empty fridge
X: I'm gonna make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams
R: Baby, I'm from New York...
Amaj7
*: One hand in the air for the big city,
H
Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty
C#m
No place in the world that can com-pare
As
Put your lighters in the air, everybody say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
R: In New York...
