Intro:
|G |G |C |C |G |G |D |C |:G |G :|X3
Verse-1:
G
Said, hey little girl take me by the hand,
Walk with me down this boardwalk one last time, again.
C
We’ll see those pretty pier lights,
G
Hear those carnival sounds.
C D
Gonna stop right at the top tonight,
G
When the Ferris-Wheel goes round.
Verse-2:
G
You say that I've been restless, You don't understand,
Tomorrow I'll be leaving on that morning train.
C
Gonna leave this candy apple town behind,
G
Get out while I still can.
Am D
Goin' to New York City
G
With this guitar in my hand.
Bridge:
C
I've been wishin' on these stars too long,
G
Been playin' in these bars too long,
C
Been holed up in your arms too long,
G
Been a prisoner of my heart too long.
Chorus:
G C
Goin' to New York City, To find out where I stand.
D C
And, I'll be walkin' down broadway,
G
With this guitar in my hand.

Verse-3:
G
Well, I sing for these tourists, got a dream of life on the water,
Dream that gets broken, this life gets harder and harder.
C
Leave this candy apple town behind,
G
Get out while I still can.

Goin' to New York City
G
With this guitar in my hand.
