Verse 1

An

Gm7other

one-ring circus, run its

C7course

right through

F7Bryant

Park on ice ska-a-a-ates, and

B♭M7Central

Park on horse.

But now the

E♭M7elves

are leaving midtown for western

Dm7shores:

you know I

Em7gave

you the world, babe—but I'm

E♭M7keeping

New York in the divorce

Verse 2

Gm7Momma

was a pizza,

C7daddy

was a taxicab.

They both

F7rooted

for the Yankees—far as can

B♭M7tell,

they always had.

Some

E♭M7unions,

they win wars—our

Dm7union

is no more.

Must be the

Em7rats

in this city. Still, I'm

E♭M7keeping

New York in the divorce

E♭M7I

heard you're in a better

Em7place

now,

and I hope that

E♭M7means

you can find some better

Em7men.

While I'm staying

C7put,

be

D7hind

the

E♭M7eight-ball

Em7—

—'cause in

E♭M7any

other

D7city,

it'd be a

C7ten.

Verse 3

And I

Gm7know

I should take the high road—but the

C7subway,

it's just faster.

It's

F7safe

these days, though I've had close shaves when I've

B♭M7gone

downstairs at Astor.

For some

E♭M7reason

my heart can't express, no it never skips

Dm7beats

anymore.

Got my

Em7love

stuck running local,

cause I'm
