D    C  G
 
 
Verse 1:
D                C            G
 She has gone to New York City
D                           C            G
 That old suitcase holds no funny stories
D                    C                 G
 I packed it once on her first birthday
D                          C                G
 Now that wasted shame has grown up with her
 
 
Chorus:
A    Bm          G          D   A            G D A
 The streets are slick with dew and motor oil
  Bm         G      D      A              G D A
A girl walks in and out of the morning sun
  Bm     G        D          A            G D A
A barred window reflects the cloudless sky
   Bm      G
No blue reaches those eyes
Verse 2:
D                C            G
 She has gone to New York City
D                              C     G
 Through that arch on a summer night
D                     C                G
 I went there once on her first birthday
D                           C         G
 Lay my burning head on the cool stone
 
 
Chorus:
A    Bm      G        D           A            G D A
 Its raining blossoms down in the concrete park
  Bm         G      D      A               G D A
A girl walks in and out of the evening shade
  Bm     G     D                 A                G D A
A broken angel weeps through her spray paint smile
   Bm        G        A
No tears can reach me while
 
 
Refrain:
  D              C       G

I know I'm not responsible

Bridge:
      D                A
But I want somebody to lie
      C                 G
And release me into the past
      D                   A
And I want to know what I knew
        C
For the secret word to tell you that
 
 
Refrain:
  D              C        G
I know I'm not responsible
  D              C      G
I know I'm not responsible
 
 
Bridge:
D
But I want somebody to lie
       C                  G
And to lock me out of the years
      D
And I want my problem again
      C               G
And a secret word you will not hear
A/G          Em/B
Goodnight my dear
             D           A
Goodnight my cold little one
         Em
Has your dream begun?
