[Verse 1]
A
I wish I could take you with me
E
All the way to New York City
D
And we can get an apartment there
E
Be closer to our families
[Verse 2]
A
We can take my station wagon
E
Fill it to the brim
D
And wave goodbye to all our lovely friends
E
Never to return again
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
A
You could write for picture shows
E
And I could get a job
D
Waiting tables at a restaurant
E
Where famous people like to go
[Verse 4]
A
We could buy old overcoats
E
And walk through the snow
D
All the way around Central Park
E
Our cheeks as pink as wild roses
[Instrumental]
A E A E
A E D E
A E D E
[Outro]
A
We could take the subway home
E
And stare at our reflections
D
In the window panes of the trains
E A
And see how much New York has changed us
