Been to Wild Montana, [C] went there in [G] a storm.
[C]
Boots wore Texas [F] leather, Levi's [C] wet, long.
[G] Loved it [C] in Montana, [C] [G] yes I loved it in the storm.
[C] I [G] think I'm going to cross that [F] river, I just might be [C] reborn.
New York, New York, [Bb] winter 61, [F] taking me a [C] city ride.
Somebody [Bb] tall must have put out the lights, cause it got [G] real dark outside.
And I never saw [Bb] the sun till 71, [F] but I never [C] gave up the fight.
Sure [Dm] was glad when I saw the [F] dawn, somebody, somebody turned on the light.
Somebody [C] turned on the light.
Women [Dm] whining, fast red cars, and I couldn't see [C] to read the signs.
Somebody [Bb] said, whose life is [F] this, and I said [G] that it can't be mine.
And I never saw [Bb] the sun till 71, but I never [C] gave up the fight.
Sure [Dm] was glad when I saw the [F] dawn, somebody, somebody turned on the light.
Somebody turned [C] on the light.
[G] [Eb]
[F] [C] When the world is wrong, [Bb] better right [F] yourself, better make the dark [C] clouds fly.
