[Bb] [C] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] [C] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] LA is fine, the [Eb] sun shines [Bb] most the time,
[Gm] and the feeling is laid [Eb] back.
[F] Palm trees grow and rents are low, but you know, keep [A] 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 it ain't mine [Bb] no [Eb] more.
[Bb] I've had my share, to no one [Eb] there, and no one heard at all, not even the [Bb] chair.
Am I crying?
[Eb] Am, 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]
[Bb] Did 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 me [Eb] 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 a sin, to no one [Eb]
there, and no one heard at all, not even the [Bb] chair.
Am I crying?
Am, [Eb] said I, and I am lost and I can't even [Bb] say why.
I sin, I [Eb]
cry.
[Bb]
