[Intro]
F G C F Bb E A
[Verse]
F G
Once in your life you will find her
C F
Someone who turns your heart around
Bb
And next thing you know
E A
You're closing down the town
F G
Wake up and it's still with you
C F
Even though you left her way across town
Bb E
Wonderin' to yourself
A
Hey, what have I found
[Chorus]
D
When you get caught
A
Between the moon and New York City
Bm
I know it's crazy
A
But it's true
D
If you get caught
E F#m
Between the moon and New York City
Bm
The best that you can do
Bm
The best that you can do
A
Is fall in love
[Verse 2]
F G
Arthur, he does as he pleases
C F
All of his life his master's toys
Bb E
And deep in his heart he's just
A
He's just a boy
F G
Living his life one day at a time
C F
He's showing himself a pretty good time
Bb E
He's laughing about the way
A
They want him to be
[Chorus]
D
When you get caught
A
Between the moon and New York City
Bm
I know it's crazy
A
But it's true
D
If you get caught
E F#m
Between the moon and New York City
Bm
The best that you can do
Bm
The best that you can do
A
Is fall in love
