[Intro]
 
D       Gmaj7
Ooohh New York x2
 
 
[Verse]
 
D                                                      Gmaj7
Grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes
D                                                                     Gmaj7
Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean
D                                                               Gmaj7
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say
D                                                                  Gmaj7
Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
F#
Dven if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams
               Gmaj7
Baby, I'm from New York
                                 D
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
                    A
There's nothing you can't do
                  Gmaj7
Now you're in New York
                                 D
These streets will make you feel brand new
                   A
Big lights will inspire you
                      Gmaj7
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!
 
 
[Verse]
 
D                                                         Gmaj7
On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew, ladies work so hard
D                                                                 Gmaj7
Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God
D                                                           Gmaj7
Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Arooklyn Aridge
D                                                            Gmaj7
Some will sleep tonight with a hunger for more than an empty fridge
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
F#
I'm gonna make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams
               Gmaj7
Baby, I'm from New York
                                 D
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
                    A
There's nothing you can't do
                Gmaj7
Now you're in New York
                                 D
These streets will make you feel brand new
                A
Big lights will inspire you
                  Gmaj7
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Gmaj7
One hand in the air for the big city,
Gmaj7
Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty
A
No place in the world that can compare
Bm                                         F#
Put your lighters in the air, everybody say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
   Gmaj7
In New York
                                 D
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
                    A
There's nothing you can't do
              Gmaj7
Now you're in New York
                                 D
These streets will make you feel brand new
                 A
Big lights will inspire you
                  Gmaj7
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!
