Verse
B
I can't explain it
Bmaj7
This yearning feeling
B
There's no escaping
E
Keeps creeping back in
Em D#m7
'Round every corner
G#m7 C#m7
Every stone turned over
F#
Maybe I'm meant to be in
B
New York
[Verse 2]
B
There's someone out there
Bmaj7
Inside the mirror
B
Her plan is grand and
E
Her mind is clearer
Em D#m7
Behind the curtain
G#m7 C#m7
Living a life I want to
F#
Maybe I'm meant to be in
B
New York
B
New York
B
New York
[Chorus 1]
E B
Oh, where the future's bright
F# E B
The grass looks so much greenеr under neon lights
E D#m7 G#m7
Oh, wherе the seasons change
C#m7 F#
And everyone goes west to beat the cold
[Verse 3]
B
The ground beneath me
Bmaj7
Is always shaking
B
The roads have cracks and
E
The sidewalk's breaking
Em D#m7
And should the big one
G#m7 C#m7
Send the palm trees falling
F#
I'd feel much safer out in
B
New York
[Chorus 2]
E B
Oh, out there, I'll find myself
F# E B
See how all my things look on a different shelf
E D#m7 G#m7
Oh, I will have my own place
C#m7 F#
And someone down the hall who also calls it home
[Outro]
B
I can't explain it
Bmaj7
This yearning feeling
B
I didn’t choose it
E
It didn’t choose me
Em D#m7
'Round every corner
G#m7 C#m7
Every stone turned over
F#
Is telling me to go to
B C#m7
New York
Maybe I'll find myself in
B G#m7
New York
C#m7
Maybe I'm meant to be in
B
New York
