[Bbm] I [Eb] used to live in New [Ab] York City
[Db] [Ab] Everything [Bbm] [Db]
[Ebm] there was [Ab] dark and dirty

[E] steeple
[Ab] [Bbm] [Eb] With a [Gb] clock that always said [Ab] twelve-thirty

[Db] [Ab] [Bbm] [Db] To feel [Eb] these changes [Ebm] [Ab] happening in [Dbm] me
[E] [Ab] [Bbm] But not [A] to notice till I [Ab] feel [Db] it
Young girls are coming to [Ab] the canyon
And [Gb] in [Bbm] the morning see them [Ab] walking
I [Db] can no longer keep my [Ab] pride strong
I'm [Gb]
[Gbm] not shaking myself [Db] for talking
