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.

Break:

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.
