Intro
F#
[Verse]
C#
Sometimes when I'm driving late in the night
D#m B
When there's that special kind of early morning light
F# C#
When the evergreen stands out in the dark
D#m B F#
I'm thinking about that northern state of New York, New York
[Chorus]
C# F#
New York State was good to me
B F#
'Cause I found a wife and made a family
C# D#m
If anyone asks what it means to me
B F#
Well, it's the nearest to home I'll ever be, in New York
F#
New York
[Verse]
C#
Well, New York city's just a part of the state
D#m B
Some people hate it, I think it's great
F# C#
It's an honest city, won't tell you a lie
D#m B F#
It'll take your money and look you straight in the eye, New York
[Verse]
C#
When the city got too much to take
D#m B
When the pressure built up and we thought we'd break
F# C#
When everyone else was headed south
D#m B F#
We went our own way, we headed north of New York
[Chorus]
C# F#
New York State was good to me
B F#
'Cause I found a wife and made a family
C# D#m
If anyone asks what it means to me
B F#
Well, it's the nearest to home I'll ever be, in New York
F#
New York
[Verse]
C#
I wish I could take that trip again
D#m B
Five hundred miles up to Lake Champlain
F# C#
Fishing for supper in a homemade boat
D#m B F#
The love we made and the songs I wrote of New York
[Verse]
C#
And we rented a house on the Long Island sand
D#m B
Where work in the city was close at hand
F# C#
In the summer we swam in Montauk Bay
D#m B F#
And England felt so far away from New York
[Chorus]
C# F#
New York State was good to me
B F#
'Cause I found a wife and made a family
C# D#m
If anyone asks what it means to me
B F#
Well, it's the nearest to home I'll ever be, in New York
F#
New York
[Verse]
C#
And it may sound strange that an Englishman
D#m B
Should lose his heart to a foreign land
F# C#
Maybe it's because I've been away
D#m B F#
Too long from her, it's hard to say, New York
[Chorus]
C# F#
New York State was good to me
B F#
'Cause I found a wife and made a family
C# D#m
If anyone asks what it means to me
B F#
Well, it's the nearest to home I'll ever be, in New York
F#
New York
