    G
    I said, hey little girl
    Take me by the hand
    Walk with me down this boardwalk
    One last time again
 
    C9
    We're gonna see those pretty pier lights
                          G
    Hear those carnival sounds
                D
    Well we'll stop right at the top tonight
    C9                            G
    As this ferris wheel goes round
 
    G
    Now you say that I'm wrestless
    You don't understand
    Tomorrow I'll be leavin' on that mornin' train
                C9
    I'm gonna leave this candy apple town behind
                                G
    And get out while I still can  
                D          Dsus     C9
    I'm goin to New York City
                           G
    With this guitar in my hand
 
 
                                   C9
    And I've been wishin' on these stars too long
                                   G
    And I've been playing in these bars too long
                         C9
    I've been hold up in your arms too long
                               G
    I've been a prisoner of my heart too long
 
 
                 C9
    I'm goin to New York City
                           G
    To find out where I stand
                  D
    And I'll be walking down Broadway
    C9                      G
    With this guitar in my hand

    G
    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
 
        C9
    I gotta leave this candy apple town behind
                                  G
    And get out while I still can
              D              Dsus  C9
    I'm goin' to New York City
                           G
    With this guitar in my hand
 
 
    G                               C9
    And I've been wishin' on these stars too long
                                   G
    And I've been playing in these bars too long
                         C9
    I've been hold up in your arms too long
                               G
    I've been a prisoner of my heart too long
 
 
                C9
    I'm goin to New York City
                           G
    To find out where I stand
                  D                  Dsus
    And I'll be walking down Broadway
    C9                      G
    With this guitar in my hand
 
                   D                  Dsus
    And I'll be walking down Broadway
    C9                      G
    With this guitar in my hand
