Original Key Capo 2



E       Amaj7

E                                                      Amaj7
Grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes
E                                                                     Amaj7
Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean
E                                                               Amaj7
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say
E                                                                  Amaj7
Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway


G#              
Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams
               Amaj7
Baby, I'm from New York
                                 E
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
                    B
There's nothing you can't do
                  Amaj7
Now you're in New York
                                 E
These streets will make you feel brand new
                   B
Big lights will inspire you
                      Amaj7
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!


E                                                         Amaj7
On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew, ladies work so hard
E                                                                 Amaj7
Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God
E                                                           Amaj7
Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
E                                                            Amaj7
Some will sleep tonight with a hunger for more than an empty fridge


G#
I'm gonna make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams
               Amaj7
Baby, I'm from New York
                                 E 
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
                    B
There's nothing you can't do
                Amaj7
Now you're in New York
                                 E

Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty
B
No place in the world that can compare
C#                                          G#

ALTERNATE CHORDING
------------------
If you're a dude like me and you dig Ms. Keys but can't hit the notes well enough 
in the orginal key try the following and move the capo up and down the neck until 
you hit a range that you think you can handle. 

For this example we'll play it down so even the high parts rest comfortably within a male range.
