Welcome To New York by Scott Klopfenstein
Welcome To New York
Verse:
A D
Oh, I packed up suit cases,
F#m E
One for clothes one for dreams,
A D F#m E
And on the five hour flight I made my fool proof schemes,
D E C#m F#m
That I'd eat the big apple not choke on the seeds,
D E F#m -> E -> D
and they'd name a street after me,
D E A E
but this was not destined to be,
A D F#m E
'Cause every actor, model, musician, in the food industry,
A D F#m E
Smiles for tips to afford their 300 square feet,
D E C#m F#m
and at the end of auditions all they hear is "next please",
D E F#m -> E -> D
So at night they drop to their knees,
D E A
"God can you still hear me?",
Chorus:
Bm G D
So welcome to New York aren't you lonely now?,
Bm G D F#
Even your God's lost you in the crowd, amongst the sound,
Bm F# G D
Of eight million people who's hearts make man's choir,
G Bm F#
Hoping hearts can reach higher then man can build,
A D
On the sidewalks and subways,
Bm E
Where dreams are for sale,
A D F#m E
Live the giant sized, judging eyes of those who've yet to fail,
D E
Staring into the faces,
C#m F#m
Behind open guitar cases,
D E F#m -> E -> D
Belting just so they can hear,
D E A
Past the ringing of the city in their ears,
Chorus:
Bm G D
So welcome to New York aren't you lonely now?,
Bm G D F#
Even your God's lost you in the crowd, amongst the sound,
Bm F# G D
Of eight million people who's hearts make man's choir,
G Bm F#
Hoping hearts can reach higher then man can build,
[Guitar Solo]
The Chorus is then repeated twice, with a key change up for each. So the first
repetition follows the progression:
C#m A E etc.
So welcome to New York. . .
The second repetition follows the progression:
D#m, B, F# etc.
So..., to..., New..., lonely now. . .
