INTRO:
(female)[E][A][E][A][B7][B7][E][B7]
Oh the city [E]snow makes your [A]brown eyes shine
We've gotta [E]look real hard to find a [A]reason to cry
[B7]New York, New York is a friend to the traveling [E]kind[B7]
And I'm coming [E]around from years [A]of hard times
He's chased [E]me down through the towns [A]and the miles
[B7]Once stilled by love he was bound to roll on [E]by[B7]
Chorus:
And if you [A]feel my love won't [E]leave you[A][E]
And if your [Dbm]sorrow [A]- has been your [B]share
If you are [E]traveling [A]- back to Geor[E]gia[A][E]
B7 (no chord) E
Won't you take - me with you there
Instrumental:
(male)[E][A][E][A][B7][B7][E][B7]
Well I'm lon[E]g gone darling, [A]lonesome blue
I been think[E]ing of leaving, I been th[A]inking of you
[B7]But that big city singing, man I like the way that it [E]shines [B7]
Iwas half a [E]mile from Canada[A] waiting on a train
Wondering an[E]d wishing I could disappe[A]ar again
[B7]I been killed by love still it takes me to the end of the [E]line[B7]
-CHORUS-
(female)
I've been tr[E]oubled by a love[A] untrue
Its a fool w[E]ho will drown in his foun[A]tain of youth
[B7]I can see that now as I'm walking and talking with [E]you[B7]
(male)
I been blind[E]ed by the sun, w[A]asted in the rain
Scattered in[E] America, and I'm scatter[A]in' again
[B7]But if you're going south darling, I guess I'm traveling with [E]you[B7]
CHORUS 2xs and fade out
