CAPO: 4th Fret
[Intro]
C G F C G F C F C
[Verse 1]
G F C
This moonlight in New York
G F C
Will not go away
G F
I sit in this hotel
C G F
And tonight I'm just too drunk to pray
Am G F
She said that she'd always love me
Am Em F
But that she might not always stay
[Chorus]
Am G F
Have a seat___
Am G F
Have a seat___
C F C F C F
And we can look at the world through this window on 23rd Street
[Verse 2]
C G F
I came a long way to see her one more time
C G F
There was a subway to take me uptown
C G F
There was an address she gave me last Christmas
C G F
Where she said she could always be found
Am G F
I listened as she said she loved me
Am Em F
I'll always remember that sound
[Chorus]
Am G F
Have a seat___
Am G F
Have a seat___
C F C F C F
And we can look at the world through this window on 23rd Street
[Verse 3]
C G F
If you look closely down to the sidewalk
C G F
You can see yourself as a ghost
C G F
We would walk 'round the block with no reason to talk
C G F
Back then we were younger than most
Am G F
It's a love that you never will see
Am Em F
Hey, buddy, I don't mean to boast
[Chorus]
Am G F
Have a seat___
Am G F
Have a seat___
C F C F C F
And we can look at the world through this window on 23rd Street
[Verse 4]
C G F
Well, there's some folks bring love to a hotel
C G F
And some just bring their own quiet end
C G F
My story is not one hard to tell
C G F
And I just want to tell it again
Am G F
She said that she'd always love me
Am Em F
All I need is to find her again
[Chorus]
Am G F
Have a seat___
Am G F
Have a seat___
C F C F C F
And we can look at the world through this window on 23rd Street
