Good Night New York by Nanci Griffith





        Good Night New York 






G         D      Bm C
My mother came to America
C                  G         D
Sailed through the harbor of hopes and of dreams
G           D
Back in the Thirties
Bm               C
With the streets paved in gold
C        G             D
And the sky laced with moonbeams
C            G          C           G
Mothers and daughters, fathers and sons
C            G                     D
Here in the free world, we're the lucky ones
Chorus: 
D         C   G
All of my yearning
G         D
All of my hunger
D          C  G
Maybe I'm learning
G           D
Sometimes I wonder
D           G          F  C
Good night, New York
G          D
Before the Kennedys
Bm         C
Before the Beatles
C          G       D
Before the Vietnam War
G         D         Bm           C
Back to a time when anything was possible
C           G             D
Having less meant knowing more
C             G       C          G
Brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts
C           G                    D
Here in the free world, for that second chance
D          G          F   C
Good night,New York
G         D     Bm  C
My mother came to America
C                  G         D
Sailed through the harbor of hopes and of dreams
     G           D
And here in the future
Bm          C
I hope I've not failed her
C                   G            D
Cause nothing's the way that it seems
Chorus: 
D         C   G
All of my yearning
G         D
All of my hunger
D          C  G
Maybe I'm learning
G           D
Sometimes I wonder
D           G          F  C
Good night, New York
