New York City was a stitch in time
           F                   C
When I'd stood all I could of L.A.
C                            C7
Patchin' up the pieces of my tangled mind
D7                                 G    G7
Diggin' somethin' different every day, yeah.

Soon as I was better I was movin' on
E7                            F
Gettin' it together, gettin' good and gone

Keeps a man from missin' what he left behind

Anyhow, anywhere, anyway, anytime
