[C] Now I know
[E] Spanish [Am] Harlem [C] are [F] not just pretty [C] words to say
[Dm] I
[C] thought I knew,
[E] but now I [Am] know that [C] rose trees [F] never grow [C] in New [Dm] York City
[F]
Until you [C] see this [Dm] trash can dream come [C] true
[F] You stand at the [C] edge while [G] people run you [C] through
And [F]
I thank the [C] Lord there's [Dm]
people out there like [C] you
I [F]
thank the [C] Lord there's people out there [Dm] like you
[G]
While more [C] thieves and [Bb] mad hatters, [F] sons of bankers, sons [C] of lawyers
Turn around and say good morning to the [F] night
For [E] unless they see the [Am] [C] sky, but [F] they can't and [C] that is [D] why
They [F] know not if it's [G] dark outside or [F] [C] light
It's [F] [C] [Dm] [C] Broadway's got, [E] it's got a [Am] lot of songs [C] to sing
[F] If I knew the [C]
tunes I might [Dm] join in
I'll [C] go [C] my way alone, [E] I'll grow my [Am] own and my own [F] seed shall be sown
[C]
In New York [Dm] City,
[F] subway's [C] no way for a [G] good man to go [C] down
Rich [F] man can [C]
rise and [G] the hobo he can [C]
drown
[F] And I thank the [C]
Lord for the [G] people I have [C]
found
I [F] thank the Lord [C] for the people I have [Dm] found
[G]
While more [C] thieves and [Bb] mad hatters, sons [F] of bankers, sons of [C]
lawyers
Turn around and say good morning to the [F] night
For [E] unless they see [Am] the sky, [C] [F] but they [Am] can't and that is [D]
why
They [F]
know not if it's [G] dark outside [F] or light
[C] [F] [C]
Now I know
[E] [C] Spanish Harlem are not [F] just pretty [C] words to [Dm] say
I [C]
[C] thought I knew, [E]
but now [Am] I know [G] that rose [F] trees never grow
[C] In New [Dm] York City, [F]
subway's no [C] way for a good man to [Dm] go down
