 G
Morning comes crashing like a rock through a window
Jackhammer banging on the hot concrete
 D
Take your stand (hey!)
Move it, man!
It's a backtalk, sidewalk symphony
G
Uber cars, yellow cabs, thick as smoke
Painted girls and meter maids will leave you broke
 D
Sax man blowing shooting through my veins
            C
There's a rhythm to the rocket that's intoxicating

Chorus:
     G
Goodnight New York, goodnight
      D
Don't ever close your eyes
            C
If these streets could talk, "New York, New York"
    D
So fine they named you twice
      C
Your face, your brains, no other place
      G 
From east to west, these streets are blessed
     Am                    C         D
Goodnight New York, sleep tight New York
     G
Goodnight

Starbucks, FedEx trucks on every street and avenue
Broadway lights, shining bright, make everybody beautiful
Walking on the high line, reaching for the sky line
If Alexander Hamilton could see it all
Garbage trucks backing up ,beep, beep, beep
Dogs barking on the balcony, the kids can't sleep
Scaffolds, pot holes, bagman's on a bicycle
Fast trains, bus, planes, welcome to the carnival

Chorus

      D
The bravest and the finest
My hand's on my heart for you
       Em
To the ones who paid the price
And to those who saw us through
      C
It's late, I'm getting weary
So for now, I'll say

     G
Goodnight New York, goodnight
Don't ever close your eyes
            D
If these streets could talk, "New York, New York"
So fine they named you twice

Chorus

        Am
Ah, goodnight New York
       C         D
Sleep tight New York
     G
Goodnight
       Am
So goodnight New York
       C         D
Sleep tight New York
     G
Goodnight
