verse 1 

G             D/F#                   E 
New York City spread herself before you 
         C                G               D/F# 
With her bangles and her spangles and her stars 

G         D/F#               E 
You were impressed with the city so undressed 
    C              D               G 
You had to go out cruising all the bars 

verse 2 

G                  D/F#                    E 
Your business trip extended through the weekend 
C             G                  D/F# 
Suburban boy here for your first time 
        G     D/F#   E 
From the 27th floor above the midtown roar 
         C              D              G 
You were dazzled by her beauty and her crime 
         
Dm Cmaj7 And she's every girl you've seen in every movie Dm Cmaj7 Every dame you've ever known on late night TV Em Em/D Cmaj7 Em/C# In her steam and steel is the passion you feel B7 Endlessly
verse 3 G D/F# E New York is a woman she'll make you cry C D G And to her you're just another guy G D/F# E Look down and see her ruined places C G D Smoke and ash still rising to the sky G D/F# E She's happy that you're here but when you disappear C D G She won't know that you're gone to say goodbye
Dm Cmaj7 And she's every girl you've seen in every movie Dm Cmaj7 Every dame you've ever known on late night tv Em Em/D Cmaj7 Em/C# In her steam and steel is the passion you feel B7 Desperately
verse 4 G D/F# E New York is a woman she'll make you cry C D G And to her you're just another guy
