[Intro]
G
Everybody knows she's a perfect ten
C
And I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing ends
Em
Cause New York sky don't get much brighter
C
She sets, she sets the city on fire
[Verse]
G
Somebody told me if I'm not careful
C
Well, this one's gonna roll me
Em
I got my hands full and this one's gonna own me and control me
C
I'm so mystified
G
She caught the last train last night, left another note
C
Saying "see you next time; miss me if you don't"
Em
You look good in your bed; til we meet again
C
You went through my head and nobody told me so
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Everybody knows she's a perfect ten
C
And I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing ends
Em
Cause New York sky don't get much brighter
C
She sets, she sets the city on fire
[Chorus]
G
She sets the city on fire
C
Burns like a million lighters
Em
I'm going up, I couldn't get much higher
C G
She sets, she sets the city on fire
[Verse]
G
New scene, next block
C
She'll be jaywalking right across while the cops talk
Em
Make you feel like a boss when your eyes lock
C
And you can't stop staring endlessly
G
She got the whole thing figured out; hits me where it hurts
C
And I know I might be swinging at a curve
Em
I don't mind it, though, when the lights are low
C
She can hit the notes wearing my T-shirt
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Everybody knows she's a perfect ten
C
And I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing ends
Em
Cause New York sky don't get much brighter
C
She sets, she sets the city on fire
[Chorus]
G
She sets the city on fire
C
Burns like a million lighters
Em
I'm going up, I couldn't get much higher
C
She sets, she sets the city on fire
[Bridge]
G C
But I don't know if I'm chasing ghosts
Em
Put my hand in the flame of a flickering lighter
C
Again and again, I was lucky just to find her
G C
But I don't know if I'm chasing ghosts
Em
Put my hand in the flame of a flickering lighter
C
Again and again, I was lucky
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Everybody knows she's a perfect ten
C
And I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing ends
Em
Cause New York sky don't get much brighter
C
She sets, she sets the city on fire
[Chorus]
C
She sets the city on fire
C
Burns like a million lighters
Em
I'm going up, I couldn't get much higher
C
She sets, she sets the city on fire
Em
I'm going up, I couldn't get much higher
C G
She sets, she sets the city on fire
