New York City SONG (N.Y.C. SONG)
          JOHN CAFFFERTY (eddie and the cruisers).
 
to get the riff for the D part at the start just listen to the youtube version of
this song. its easy to pick up. I love this song ever since i saw eddie and the
cruisers when i was a kid, so i hope you all appreciate me tabbing it the way J.C
plays it. if someone wants to tab the solo be my guest.
 
    CAPO : 4th fret
 
    D
    I said, hey little girl
    Take me by the hand
    Walk with me down this boardwalk
    One last time again
 
    G
    We're gonna see those pretty pier lights
                          D
    Hear those carnival sounds
               A
    Well we'll stop right at the top tonight
    G                         D
    As this ferris wheel goes round
 
    D
    Now you say that I'm wrestless
    You don't understand
    Tomorrow I'll be leavin' on that mornin' train
              G
    I'm gonna leave this candy apple town behind
                              D
    And get out while I still can  
                A
    I'm goin to New York City
    G                      D
    With this guitar in my hand
 
 
                  G
    And I've been wishin' on these stars too long
                  D
    And I've been playing in these bars too long
              G
    I've been hold up in your arms too long
                D
    I've been a prisoner of my heart too long
 
 
                 G
    I'm goin to New York City
                           D
    To find out where I stand
                A
    And I'll be walking down Broadway
    G                      D
    With this guitar in my hand
 
 
** Guitar Solo ** (Pick down and up through G, C9 and D chords - listen  to the
song to get the feel)
 
 
    D
    Now I sing for these tourists
    Bout' a dream life on the water
    But when that dream gets broken
    This life gets harder and harder
 
            G
    I gotta leave this candy apple town behind
                              D
    And get out while I still can
 
                 A
    I'm goin' to New York City
    G                       D
    With this guitar in my hand
 
 
                  G
    And I've been wishin' on these stars too long
                  D
    And I've been playing in these bars too long
              G
    I've been hold up in your arms too long
                D
    I've been a prisoner of my heart too long
 
 
                G
    I'm goin to New York City
                        D
    To find out where I stand
                A
    And I'll be walking down Broadway
    G                      D
    With this guitar in my hand
