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