Sons of [F]bankers, sons of law[G]yers
Turn [C]around and say good morning to the ni[F]ght
For un[E7]less they see the [Am]sky[G]
But they [F]can't and [C]that is [D]why
They [F]know not if it's [G]dark outside or [F]light[C]
This Broadway's got
It's got a lot of songs to sing
If I knew the tunes I might join in
I'll go my way alone
Grow my own, my own seeds shall be sown in New York City
Subway's no way for a good man to go do[(C)]wn
Rich man can ride and the hobo he can drown
And I thank the Lord for the people I have found
I thank the Lord for the people I have found
