Chords with lyrics

DmDm       G+G
Hudson died in Hudson bay
C majorC         A minorAm
The water took its victim's name
G minorGm           FF
Now rivers rise toward Riverside
E MajorE
To change their names again

DmDm          G+G
A augmentedA stranger walked in through the door

C majorC           A minorAm
Said, "All apartments are pre-war"
G minorGm            FF
We laughed and asked him for his name
E MajorE
He stayed until the end

DmDm           G+G
We watched the Germans play the Greeks
C majorC          A minorAm
We marked the ninety-nine-year lease
G minorGm            FF
Our fathers signed which I declined
E MajorE
To try and comprehend

(Chorus)
DmDm    G+G
Over and over again
C majorC     A minorAm
All these never-ending visions
DmDm    G+G
Over and over again
C majorC     A minorAm
Like a prize that's changing hands
DmDm    G+G
The time has come
C majorC          A minorAm
The clock is such a drag
G minorGm      FF
All you who change your stripes
E MajorE
Can wrap me in the flag

DmDm      G+G
The 🏷Legendary wooden gate
C majorC           A minorAm
That first established real estate
G minorGm          FF
Is lost to time like other crimes
E MajorE
That won this pleasant land

(Chorus)

DmDm       G+G
Hudson died in Hudson bay
C majorC         A minorAm
But I was born on Sutton Place
G minorGm           FF
The rising tide helped me decide
E MajorE
To change my name again

DmDm        G+G
Some men tend to linger on,
C majorC            A minorAm
And some make haste from Babylon,
G minorGm            FF
And some will roam their ruined home,
E MajorE
Rejoicing to the end

(Chorus)

DmDm      G+G     C majorC       A minorAm
The lines are drawn, the map is such a drag
G minorGm     FF            E MajorE
