(riff 1) C G
Come see the vampires of New York, a-ah
(riff 1) C G
Come lose your mind in Central Park, a-ah
C G
But don't leave your soul behind, a-ah
(riff 1) C G
Come take in 8th street after dark, a-ah
(riff 1) C G
Such peculiar people you'll remark, a-ah
C G
You might even see a murder, a-ah
F G
And all the whores on Bleecker Street
C
They wear the blissful grin
F G
Caused by the drugs they take
C G
To relieve them of their sins, ah-oh
C Am G
And "Oh-oh lord I think she's dying"
C Am G
I heard somebody say, I think she's dying
C Am G
And "Oh, oh lord I think she's dying"
(riff 1) C
Or, maybe she's already dead
G
and maybe she's gone to Mars.
C
Maybe we could even write her epitaph
G
in the stars.
C G
It'd say "If you go away from here...
C G
if you go a million miles..."
F C G
Come downtown
F C G
to see them go
(riff 1) C G
Into the den of the vampires of New York ha-hah
But please watch your step as you're
C
getting off kids.
