LA's fine, the sun shines most the time, _ _ _
_ [Eb] and the feeling's laid back
Palm _
_ _ [F] trees grow and rents are low, but you know, I keep thinking 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's fine, but it ain't home, New York's home, but [Bb] it ain't mine no more
[Bb] _ _ _
_ I am, I said, _ _ _ _ _ to no one [Eb] there, _ _ _ _ _ and no one heard I, or not [Bb] even the chair
_ _ _ _ _ [G]
I [Bb] am, I cried, _ _ _ _ _ I am, [Eb] said I, _ _ _ _ _ and I am lost and I can't even [Bb] see why, _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ leaving [Bb] me lonely [F] still
Did [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ you ever read about a frog who dreamed of being a king, _ _ _ [Eb] _
and then became one?
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _
Well except for the names and a few other changes, if you're talking about me, _ _ _ the story's the same one
But _ _ I've got an emptiness deep inside, and I've tried, but it won't [Eb] let me go
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
And I'm [F] not a man who likes to swear, but I've never cared for the sound [Bb] of being _ alone _
_ I am, I said, _ [Eb] _
_ [Bb] _ _ to no [Eb] one there, _ _ _ _ _ and no one heard I, or not [Bb] even the chair _ _ _ _ _
I am, I cried, _ _ _ _ _ I [Eb] am, said I, _ _ _ _ _ and I am lost and I just [Gm] couldn't see [Bb] why
_ _ _ _ And I am, I said, _ _ _ _ _ and I [Eb] am, I cried, _ _ _ _ and I am, and I am, _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ leaving me [Eb] lonely [F] still
_ _ [Bb] _ _ Leaving me lonely [F] still
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _
