Introd: C E7/9- Am7 C7M F C D7 

C                  E7/9- 
Some folks like to get away,  
         Am7           Gdim        C7 
Take a holiday from the neighborhood,  
F                A7               Dm7        Bb9 
Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood.  
C             E7/9-      Am7           C7M     F    C D7 
But I'm takin' a Greyhound on the Hudson River line  
         G9                Am7 G E7/9- Am7 
I'm in a New York state of mind.  
C                  E7/9- 
I've seen all the movie stars  
         Am7                   Gdim      C7 
In their fancy cars and their limousines,  
F                A7                    Dm7    Bb9 
Been high in the Rockys under the evergreens;  
C                  E7/9-        Am7      C7M     F        C D7 
I know what I'm needin', and I don't wanna waste more time  
         G9                Am7 G 
I'm in a New York state of mind.  
Bridge:  
          E7          G7M 
It was so easy livin' day by day  
Gm7                    C9          F7M 
Out of touch with the rhythym and blues;  
    Bm7           E7             A7M 
But now I need a little give and take,  
    Am7                  D7   G7M 
The New York Times, the Daily News.  
   C              E7/9-                         Am7                         Gdim C7 
It comes down to reality, and it's fine with me, 'cause I've let it slide;  
   F                 A7               Dm7        Bb9 
I don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside.  
  C               E7/9-      Am7      C7M     F  C D7 
I don't have any reasons; I left them all behind  
               G9            Am7       G 
I'm in a New York state of mind.  
Coda:  
C             E7/9-      Am7           C7M      F    C D7 
I'm just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River line.  
              G9              C  E7/9- Am7 Bb9 C7/9 
'Cause I'm in a New York state of mind.
