Chords with lyrics

[Intro]

C majorC C7/EC7/E FF G+G


[Verse 1]

C majorC         C7/EC7/E
Wouldn't changed a single word
FF            G+G
Or touch a single note
C majorC            C7/EC7/E
Of those old songs those New York Songs
FF             G+G
Of love that we once wrote
C majorC            C7/EC7/E
And though it hurts now we're apart
FF              G+G
And different dreams pursue
C majorC         C7/EC7/E
Fragments of those songs remain
FF            G+G
In whispered shades of blue

[Chorus]

C majorC       D MajorD   G/BG/B C majorC E minorEm
Old Manhattan melodies
FF        C majorC      G+G        C majorC   G+G
Echo through my broken heart and call me back to you
C majorC       D MajorD   G/BG/B C majorC E minorEm
Old Manhattan melodies...
FF        C majorC      G+G        C majorC   G+G
Why Oh why the echoes cry I only wish I knew


[Verse 2]

C majorC          C7/EC7/E
Lighthouse shine in Quarter time
FF              G+G
And guide me from this coast
C majorC          C7/EC7/E
In case I run around once more
FF             G+G
And meet you or your ghost
C majorC          C7/EC7/E
I'ver tried I can't turn back the clock
FF              G+G
Your ships too long at sea
C majorC         C7/EC7/E
A augmentedA dream the river stole away
FF      G+G
Oh Misty Melody...
