[Verse 1]
G            C       G
We were busy closing down
    Em        C      G
The only open bar we found
    G                       C     
The lights went up and they kicked
    G
 us out
    Em                      
You kiss me on the corner in 
 C    G
Chinatown

G                 C     G
We got saved by a gypsy cab
         Em               C       
And that bottle of johnny red you 
G
had
     G                       C    
Your hair messed up and your shoes
   G
 untied
  Em                         
I watched you sleepin' in the 
 C       G
morning light

[Chorus]
      C                          
Now a different sun is sinking in 
     G
the west
      C                            
Now a different heart is beating in
    G     D
 my chest
      Em                  C        
And I tried and tried and tried to 
G
get
      Em                   
But I can't get back to New 
 C     G
Amsterdam
       Em                   
Yeah I can't get back to New

[Verse 2]
G                         C      
Down by the bridge on the lower 
    G
east side
G                          C      
Watching as the river goes rollin' 
 G
by
    G                  C      G
Did you lose me or did I lose you
  Em                           C  
Suppose it all depends on your 
      G
point of view


[Chorus]
C                              
All these downtown streets still 
           G
look the same
  C                            
I guess it ain't the bricks and 
             G     D
stones that change
      Em                  C        
And I tried and tried and tried to 
G
get
      Em                   
But I can't get back to New 
 C     G
Amsterdam
      Em                  C        
And I tried and tried and tried to 
G
get
      Em                   
But I can't get back to New 
 C     G
Amsterdam
       Em                   
Yeah I can't get back to New 
 C     G
