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