Verse
G#
I can't explain it
G#maj7
This yearning feeling
G#
There's no escaping
C#
Keeps creeping back in
C#m Cm7
'Round every corner
Fm7 A#m7
Every stone turned over
D#
Maybe I'm meant to be in
G#
New York
[Verse 2]
G#
There's someone out there
G#maj7
Inside the mirror
G#
Her plan is grand and
C#
Her mind is clearer
C#m Cm7
Behind the curtain
Fm7 A#m7
Living a life I want to
D#
Maybe I'm meant to be in
G#
New York
G#
New York
G#
New York
[Chorus 1]
C# G#
Oh, where the future's bright
D# C# G#
The grass looks so much greenеr under neon lights
C# Cm7 Fm7
Oh, wherе the seasons change
A#m7 D#
And everyone goes west to beat the cold
[Verse 3]
G#
The ground beneath me
G#maj7
Is always shaking
G#
The roads have cracks and
C#
The sidewalk's breaking
C#m Cm7
And should the big one
Fm7 A#m7
Send the palm trees falling
D#
I'd feel much safer out in
G#
New York
[Chorus 2]
C# G#
Oh, out there, I'll find myself
D# C# G#
See how all my things look on a different shelf
C# Cm7 Fm7
Oh, I will have my own place
A#m7 D#
And someone down the hall who also calls it home
[Outro]
G#
I can't explain it
G#maj7
This yearning feeling
G#
I didn’t choose it
C#
It didn’t choose me
C#m Cm7
'Round every corner
Fm7 A#m7
Every stone turned over
D#
Is telling me to go to
G# A#m7
New York
Maybe I'll find myself in
G# Fm7
New York
A#m7
Maybe I'm meant to be in
G#
New York
