[Verse 1]
    C              C/B
And no one here in New York
    Am7            F
Can do me like you do
 C                C/B
Fill my bed with roses
       Am7             F
We're smashing up the room
   C                 C/B
I flew out here for diamonds
    Am7             F
And all I got was broke
         C                G           C
But the only thing worth chasing, is you
 
 
[Chorus]
               F                 G
And when the lights go down on Broadway
         C     C/B      Am7      G
And the taxi's hard to find
      F             G                   C       C/B      Am7      G
I'm cryin' on the Brooklyn Bridge, well no one seems to mind
     F                     G                  C                     Am7
I'm sure that you've moved on by now and I shouldn't have called, I know
    Am/F#                             F         G        C
But no one here in New York seems to care that I'm alone
 
 
[Verse 2]
   C              C/B
Strangers on the subway
     Am7           F
Will make you go insane
      C              C/B
You smile in their direction
     Am7             F
They look the other way
  C                C/B
Girls in my hotel room
        Am7            F
Say my accent's kinda cute
    C                   G        C
But no one here in New York, is you
 
 
[Chorus]
               F                 G
And when the lights go down on Broadway
          C    C/B       Am7     G
And the music starts to fade
      F             G                    C      C/B   Am7     G
I'm cryin' on the Brooklyn Bridge, as strangers look away
     F                     G                  C                    Am7
I'm sure that you've moved on by now and I shouldn't have called I know
    Am/F#                             F         G    G#
But no one here in New York seems to care that I'm...
 
 
[Bridge]
  Am7           G               F                 C       C/B
Alone somewhere I don't like, eatin' stuff off motorbikes
  Am7         F                G      G#
Calling in a day, I'm calling you
     Am7              G           F               C       C/B  Am7 Am/F# G
And sometimes doing fisticuffs reminds me of the two of us,      yeah
 
 
[Chorus]
               F                 G
And when the lights go down on Broadway
       C      C/B     Am7        G
And a taxi's hard to find
      F             G                   C       C/B      Am7      G
I'm cryin' on the Brooklyn Bridge, well no one seems to mind
      F                    G                  C                     Am7
I'm sure that you've moved on by now and I shouldn't have called, I know
    Am/F#                             F         G       C
But no one here in New York seems to care that I'm alone

Overall it shouldn't be too difficult to play, for most of the chords what Matty did was he only played the base note of the chord, the index finger and middle finger mostly stays the same.
