We were busy closing down

The only open bar we found

G                 C     G
We got saved by a gypsy cab
         Em               C       G
And that bottle of johnny red you had
     G                       C       G
Your hair messed up and your shoes untied
  Em                          C       G
I watched you sleepin' in the morning light


Chorus:
      C                               G
Now a different sun is sinking in the west
      C                                G     D
Now a different heart is beating in my chest
      Em                  C        G
And I tried and tried and tried to get
      Em                    C     G
Gut I can't get back to New Amsterdam
       Em                    C     G
Yeah I can't get back to New Amsterdam

D* C G 3x
Em C G


Verse 2:
G                         C          G
Down by the bridge on the lower east side
G                          C       G
Watching as the river goes rollin' by
    G                  C      G
Did you lose me or did I lose you
  Em                           C        G
Suppose it all depends on your point of view


Chorus:
C                                         G
All these downtown streets still look the same
  C                                         G     D
I guess it ain't the bricks and stones that change
      Em                  C        G
And I tried and tried and tried to get
      Em                    C     G
But I can't get back to New Amsterdam
      Em                  C        G
And I tried and tried and tried to get
      Em                    C     G
But I can't get back to New Amsterdam
       Em                    C     G
Yeah I can't get back to New Amsterdam


Outro:
D* C G
