Verse
D#
I can't explain it
D#maj7
This yearning feeling
D#
There's no escaping
G#
Keeps creeping back in
G#m Gm7
'Round every corner
Cm7 Fm7
Every stone turned over
A#
Maybe I'm meant to be in
D#
New York
[Verse 2]
D#
There's someone out there
D#maj7
Inside the mirror
D#
Her plan is grand and
G#
Her mind is clearer
G#m Gm7
Behind the curtain
Cm7 Fm7
Living a life I want to
A#
Maybe I'm meant to be in
D#
New York
D#
New York
D#
New York
[Chorus 1]
G# D#
Oh, where the future's bright
A# G# D#
The grass looks so much greenеr under neon lights
G# Gm7 Cm7
Oh, wherе the seasons change
Fm7 A#
And everyone goes west to beat the cold
[Verse 3]
D#
The ground beneath me
D#maj7
Is always shaking
D#
The roads have cracks and
G#
The sidewalk's breaking
G#m Gm7
And should the big one
Cm7 Fm7
Send the palm trees falling
A#
I'd feel much safer out in
D#
New York
[Chorus 2]
G# D#
Oh, out there, I'll find myself
A# G# D#
See how all my things look on a different shelf
G# Gm7 Cm7
Oh, I will have my own place
Fm7 A#
And someone down the hall who also calls it home
[Outro]
D#
I can't explain it
D#maj7
This yearning feeling
D#
I didn’t choose it
G#
It didn’t choose me
G#m Gm7
'Round every corner
Cm7 Fm7
Every stone turned over
A#
Is telling me to go to
D# Fm7
New York
Maybe I'll find myself in
D# Cm7
New York
Fm7
Maybe I'm meant to be in
D#
New York
