 NEW YORK GROOVE
 
[Rhythm Fig. 1] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1a](2x) then [Riff. 1](4x)
then [Riff. 2]
 
[Rhythm Fig. 2] w/[Rhythm Fig. 2a]
Many years since I was here, on the street I was passin' my time away
To the left and to the right, buildings towering to the sky
It's outta sight in the dead of night
 
[Rhythm Fig. 1a] w/ [Rhythm Fig. 1c] w/[Riff.3](2x)
Here I am, and in this city, with a fistful of dollars
And baby, you'd better believe
 
[Rhythm Fig. 4] w/[Rhythm Fig. 4a] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1c](3x)
I'm back, back in the New York Groove
I'm back, back in the New York Groove
I'm back, back in the New York Groove
Back in the New York Groove, in the New York Groove
 
[Rhythm Fig. 1a] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1c] w/[Riff.1 (2x)]
[Rhythm Fig. 1b] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1d] w/[Riff.1a (2x)]
 
[Rhythm Fig. 4] w/[Rhythm Fig. 4a] w/[Riff. 2a]
In the back of my Cadillac
A wicked lady, sittin' by my side, sayin' 'Where are we?'
Stop at Third and Forty-three, exit to the night
It's gonna be ecstacy, this place was meant for me
 
[Rhythm Fig. 1b] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1d] w/[Riff. 3a](2x)
Feels so good tonight, who cares about tomorrow
So baby, you'd better believe
 
[Rhythm Fig. 5] w/[Rhythm Fig. 5a] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1d](3x)
I'm back, back in the New York Groove
I'm back, back in the New York Groove
I'm back, back in the New York Groove
Back in the New York Groove, in the New York Groove
 
[Rhythm Fig. 1b] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1d] w/[Riff.1a (2x)]

[Rhythm Fig. 5] w/[Rhythm Fig. 5a] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1d]
w/[Riff.4](Until Fade)
I'm back, back in the New York Groove
I'm back, back in the New York Groove
