 F#m
I said hey (hey )
                G
Theres nothing there for you but pain and fear

If no one knows your face then no one knows your name
    F#m
I said hey
       G
And I hope I didn't let you down

[Verse]
   D                       G
And all your funny little ways will be missed

And I will take your hand when you leave
          A
Ill chase my words so I can't speak
  F#m

  F#m                   G
We both know we had a chance
                           D
We chose faith instead of sense
                      A
And we all know the truth that New York girls that you love to hate

 F#m

  A
Get your name in neon lights
           F#m
I sayid hey (hey)
          G
But the City it won't wait for you
      D
It crushes peoples souls
 A
It keeps the devil on his toes

[Chorus]
        Em                                 A
Well I never really thought that you would ever leave this town
            F#m                   Bm
Cos youre not the kinda girl to ever let us down
        Em                         A
But if you decide to leave please take me to New York with you
