[F#] I discovered a [B] big town [F#] on the crest of a [C#] wave
[F#] Throwing money at [B] strangers,
[F#] taking candy from [C#] bags
[F#] Shaking hands in a [B] big town as the rain came down
I [C#] thought it would last time
Sending letters to [B] Paris from the Empire State
[C#] Taking pictures of the [G#m] town
There's a lot of [E] things for you to [F#] do
[G#m] There's a lot of [E] dreams you won't come [C#] true
[F#] I grew up in [B] a big town
The [F#] lessons were not [C#] hard to learn
[F#] If you want them to [B] love you
You [F#] must smile at them [C#] in return
[F#] Spent the night at [B] a party where I [F#] drank so much
I [C#] fell under your [F#] spell
Eight o'clock in the morning and
The daylight makes me [C#] look and feel like [G#m] I
There's a lot of [E] things for you to [F#] do
[G#m] There's a lot of [E] dreams that won't come [C#] true
