Verse 1:
G+G       D/AD/A          E MajorE
New York city spread herself before you
     C majorC        G+G        D MajorD    G+G
With her bangles and her spangles and her stars
     D/AD/A         E MajorE
You were impressed, with the city so undressed
  C majorC       D MajorD         G+G
You had to go out cruising all the bars

Verse 2:
   G+G       D/AD/A           E MajorE
Your business trip extended through the weekend
 C majorC     G+G          D MajorD
Suburban boy here for your first time
     G+G    D/AD/A E MajorE
From the 27th floor, above the midtown roar
     C majorC        D MajorD        G+G
You were startled, by her beauty, and her crime

Chorus:

She's every dame you've ever known on late night TV

Endlessly

G+G       D/AD/A     E MajorE

And to her you're just another guy

Verse 3:
G+G       D/AD/A        E MajorE
Look down and see her ruined places
C majorC          G+G       D MajorD
Smoke and ash still rising to the sky
   G+G         D/AD/A   E MajorE
She's happy that you're here but when you disappear
  C majorC           D MajorD          G+G
She won't know that you're gone to say goodbye
