[Intro]
C Em F G
[Verse 1]
C
When I went to New York City
Em
I met you standing there so pretty
F
I couldn't take my eyes off of you
G
I didn't even know what to say or do
C
Now I'm back home sitting in my room
Em
You're so far away from me
F
I Wish that I was there holding you
G
Staring at the bright moon instead of at my ceiling
[Pre-Chorus]
Em F
Oh how I wish that we were together
Em F G
And if it gets cold you can borrow my sweater
[Chorus]
C
New York city is the place I found happiness
Em
I need to be back please take me back
F
I can't replace the feeling with any other girl
G
It needs to be you, right here, right now
[Verse 2]
C
My friends think this can't be true
Em
That I finally found someone just like you
F
I know that they're jelous of me
G
But honesty, who wouldn't be?
C
It would be nice just to visit you
Em
At the empire state staring out at the view
F
Holding each other so tight
G
Feeling the love, feeling the light
[Pre-Chorus]
Em F
Oh how I wish that we were together
Em F G
And if it gets cold you can borrow my sweater
[Chorus]
C
New York city is the place I found happiness
Em
I need to be back please take me back
F
I can't replace the feeling with any other girl
G
It needs to be you, right here, right now
C
New York city is the place I found happiness
Em
I need to be back please take me back
F
I can't replace the feeling with any other girl
G
It needs to be you, right here, right now
[Instrumental]
C Em F G
[Chorus]
C
New York city is the place I found happiness
Em
I need to be back please take me back
F
I can't replace the feeling with any other girl
G
It needs to be you, right here, right now
C
New York city is the place I found happiness
Em
I need to be back please take me back
F
I can't replace the feeling with any other girl
G
It needs to be you, right here, right now
