INTRO: C
[C]New York City was a stich in time
When I'd [F]stood all I could of L.[C]A.
[C]Patchin' up the pieces of my tangled mind
And [D]diggin' somethin' different every [G]day, yeah
[C]Soon as I was better I was movin' on
[Em]Gettin' it together, gettin' [F]good and gone
And [C]by (gettin' by), [G]high, (good and high), and [C]strange (gonna [F]get some [C]strange)
CHORUS:
[F]New ain't nothin' but a state of mind
[C]Keeps a man from missin' what he left behind
[D]I'll take anything that I can find
Any[G]how, any[F]where, any[Em] way, any [G]time
[C]I'll keep livin' 'til the day I die
As [Em]long as I can get it up for [F]one more try
And [C]by (gettin' by), [G]high (good and high), and [C]strange (gonna [F]get some [C]strange)
SOLO: C Em F C G C
CHORUS
[C](Gettin' by [G]good and high) and [C]strange (gonna [F]get some [C]strange)
