[Bb] LA is fine, [Eb] the sun shines most [Bb] the time, _ _
_ [Eb] and the feeling is lay 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 [Bb] mine no more.
_ _ _ I am myself, _ _ _ _ to no [Eb] one there, _ _ _ and no one heard at all, not even the [Bb] chair.
_ _ _ I am my cry, _ I _ am the city, _ _ and _ I am lost and I can't [Bb] even say why, _ _ [F] _
_ leaving [Bb] me lonely still. _
_ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
_ [Eb] _ [Bb] Did you ever read [Eb] about 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 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 [F] the sound of being [Bb] alone. _ _ _
I am myself, _ _ _ _ to no one [Eb] there, _ _ _ and no one heard at all, not even the chair.
_ _ _ _ I am my cry, I _ _ am [Eb] the city, _ _ _ _ and I am lost and I can't [Bb] even say why.
I _ _ [F] am [Bb] myself, _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] I cry. _ _ _
