[Bb] [Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] LA is fine, the sun shines most the time,
[Eb] and the feeling is laid 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 myself, to no [Eb] one there, and no one heard at all, not [Bb] even good share.
I am, I cried, I am the city, and I am lost, and I can't [Cm] even [Bb] say why, [F]
leaving [Bb] me lonely still.
[Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] Did you ever read [Eb] about a frog who dreamed [Bb] of being a king,
[Eb] and then became one?
Well, [F] 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 [Eb] let me go.
[F] And I'm not a man who likes to swear, but I never cared for the sound of being [Bb] alone.
I am, I said, to no one [Eb]
there, and no one heard at all, not [C] even [Bb] good share.
I am, I cried, I [Eb] am the city, and I am lost, and I can't [Bb] even say why.
I said, I [Eb]
cried.
[Bb]
