Verse (repeat verse-riff 5x):
Made it in a town that is famous as a place of movie scenes.
Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean.
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say.
Seeing my face in lights or my name in the marquee found down on Broadway.
Chorus:
C# (Palm Mute)
Even if it ain't all that it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams,
A G# D5
Out in New York.
A
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of.
E
There's nothing you can't do.
D5
Out in New York.
A
These streets will make you feel brand new,
E
Lights will inspire you,
D5
Hear it for New York, New York, New York.
Verse (repeat verse-riff 3x):
On the avenue, there's never a curfew, you work so hard.
Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, we pray to God.
