 BmFmA
   i've looked into the empty faces of the people of the night
 F#mAF#m

  to get out of here    i'm so alone    don't you know that i got
Bm__ (A A/D A A7)
to get out of here cause new york's not my home
 AAmaj7A7F#
   though all the streets are crowded   there's something strange
 BmFmA
  about it    i've lived there about a year and i never once felt
*(notes) A Amaj7 A7

 FmAF#m
  not the nice kind    it's been so long since i have felt fine

Bm__
cause new york's not my home
