INTRO: G F C

#1.
G
Heard the call and I packed it all and 
    F            C
I'm on the road again.
   G                             F
If you can help to ease my load, I will 
        C
be your friend.
G       Am
But the morning brings the sunlight and 
    Em                 Bb
the sunlight brings my train.
F     C       Em     Am        G      F
So, I say goodbye to New York, I'm an L.A. 
     C
man again.

CHORUS:
          F                 C
One night stand in New York City, lights 
    F                        C
are bright and the girls are pretty.
         Am          G        F    Em Dm
Held her heart and I held her hand.........
C        F     C     Eb        C     Em F
goodbye, lady, I'm a one night stand.

#2.
G                  F               C
Oklahoma, Arizona, wish I knew for sure.
G            
Came to town and I stood my ground, that's 
F                C
what I came here for.
Em          Am
But there's voices in the distance and they're 
Em              Bb   F
calling me back home-ome.
        C       G      Am                F
I'll be leaving in the morning, guess my fate 
   Dm7    C
is not my own.

CHORUS:
          F                 C
One night stand in New York City, lights 
    F                        C
are bright and the girls are pretty.
         Am          G        F    Em Dm
Held her heart and I held her hand.........
C        F     C     Eb        C     Em F
goodbye, lady, I'm a one night stand.

#3.
G                           F              C
Gypsy queens and magazines, livin' off the land.
G                                    F
Don't make ties and don't tell lies, do the best 
    C
you can.
Em     Am                              Em
But of every place I've been to and of everything 
     Bb    F      C         Em   Am
I've seen, I feel lonesome among strangers,
G      F             C
I feel naked without strings.

CHORUS:
          F                 C
One night stand in New York City, lights 
    F                        C
are bright and the girls are pretty.
         Am          G        F    Em Dm
Held her heart and I held her hand.........
C        F     C     Eb        C     
goodbye, lady, I'm a one night stand.
