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