New york city

Written by Peter Malick

	  		  
Intro: D   A   D   A  
  
D                         A  
I can't remember what I planned tomorrow   
D                           A  
I can't remember when it's time to go   
     Bm                                     E  
When I look in the mirror Tracing lines with a pencil  
   G                  A  
I remember what came before   
  
I wanted to think there was endless love   
Until I saw the light dim in your eyes   
In the dead of the night I found out   
Sometimes there's love that won't survive   
  
 D        D/A (A is a note in the bass)  
New York City   
 C       G           D  D/A   C G  
Such a beautiful disease   
D         D/A  
New York City  
 C      G       A# F  
Such a beautiful,   
 G                 D  
Such a beautiful disease   
  
D   A   D   A   
  
Laura kept all her disappointments   
Locked up in a box behind her closet door   
She pulled the blinds and listened to the thunder   
With no way out from the family store   
  
We all told her things could get better   
When you just say goodbye   
I'll lay awake one more night   
Caught in a vision I want to deny   
  
And did I mention the note that I found   
Taped to my locked front door   
It talked about no regrets   
As it slipped from my hand to the scuffed tile floor   
  
I rode the train for hours on end   
And watched the people pass me by   
It could be that it has no end   
Just an action junkie's lullaby   
  
New York City   
Such a beautiful disease   
New York City  
Such a beautiful,   
Such a beautiful disease   
  
D   A   D   A  
  
We were full of the stuff that every dream rested   
As if floating on a lumpy pillow sky   
Caught up in the whole illusion   
That dreams never pass us by   
  
Came to a tattoed conclusion   
That the big one was knocking on the door   
What started as a mass delusion   
Would take me far from the place I adore   
  
New York City   
Such a beautiful disease   
New York City  
Such a beautiful,   
Such a beautiful disease   

ENDING: C  G  A#  F  Cm7/G#  Bmaj7/F#   D6/B 

Note: the slash signals the note that holds at the end of those guitar bass licks or phrasing (or whatever you may call them).
