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