[Bb] [C] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] LA is fine, the sun [Eb] shines [Bb] most the time,
[Eb] [Gm] and the feeling is lay [Eb] back.
[F] Palm trees grow and rents are low, but you know keep thinking [Cm] about [Bb] making my way back.
Well I'm New York City born and raised, but nowadays I'm lost [Eb] between two shores.
[F] LA is fine, but it ain't home, New York's home, but it ain't mine [Bb] no more.
I am my sin, to no one [Eb] there, and no one heard at all, not even [Bb] Woodshare.
I am my cry, I am [Eb] said I, and I am lost and I can't even [Bb] say why, [F]
leaving [Bb] me lonely [Eb] still.
[Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb] [Eb] Did [Bb] you ever read about [Eb] a frog who [Bb] dreamed of being a king,
[Eb] and then became one?
[F] Well except for the names and a few other changes, if you talk about me,
[Bb] the story's the same one.
But I got an emptiness deep inside, and I've tried but it won't let [Eb] me go.
[F] And I'm not a man who likes to swear, but I never cared for the sound of [Bb] being alone.
[Eb] [Bb] I am my sin, to no one [Eb]
there, and no one heard at all, not even [Bb] Woodshare.
I am my cry, I [Eb] am said I, and I am lost and I can't even [Bb] say why.
[F] I [Bb] sin, I [Eb]
cry.
