Verse (repeat verse-riff 5x):

Made it in a town that is famous as 
a place of movie scenes.
Noise is always loud, there are 
sirens all around and the streets 
are mean.
If I can make it here, I can make it
 anywhere, that's what they say.
Seeing my face in lights or my name 
in the marquee found down on 
Broadway.



Chorus:

C# (Palm Mute)
Even if it ain't all that it seems, 
I got a pocketful of dreams,

A G#   D5
Out in New York.
Concrete jungle where dreams are 
A
made of.
                    E
There's nothing you can't do.
       D5
Out in New York.
These streets will make you feel 
A
brand new,
              E
Lights will inspire you,
            D5
Hear it for New York, New York, New 
York.

Verse (repeat verse-riff 3x):

On the avenue, there's never a 
curfew, you work so hard.
Such a melting pot, on the corner 
selling rock, we pray to God.



Chorus:


C# (Palm Mute)
I'ma make it by any means, I got a 
pocketful of dreams,

A G#   D5
Out in New York.
Concrete jungle where dreams are 
A
made of,
                    E
There's nothing you can't do,

Now you're in New York.
These streets will make you feel

brand new,
            E
Lights will inspire you,

Hear it for New York, New York, New

One hand in the air for the city.

Street lights, all looking pretty.

No place in the world that can

Yeah! Yeah!
