 1.
     G              G     C          D
 You called me last night on the telephone, and
 G             G                    C          D
 I was glad to hear from you 'cause I was all alone, you said "It's
 G             G        C                D
 snowing, it's snowing! God, I hate this weather."
 G                  G                 C      D      G        G
 Now I walk through blizzards just to get us back together

 2.
 We met in the springtime at a rock-and-roll show
 It was on the Bowery when it was time to go
 We kissed on the subway in the middle of the night
 I held your hand, you held mine, it was the best night of my life.
 
 Chorus:
        G               D         C        D
 'Cause everyone's your friend in New York City
     G                Em       C                     D
 And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty
     C                      D                    G               C
 The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see
         C                D                 D/tacet
 But the best thing about New York City is...   you and
 G     D     C     D
 me

 4.
 You wrote me a letter just the other day
 Said, "Springtime is coming soon so why don't you come to stay."
 I packed my stuff, got on the bus, I can't believe it's true
 I'm three days from New York City and I'm three days from you
 
 Chorus (twice)



NOTE: In verse 3, the original Cub lyrics were "The Empire State where KING KONG lived."
