C                                  Am
To know what it's like to love somebody the way I love you
Em                                 Bm
To know what it's like to love somebody the way I love you
C                                Am
To know how it feels to kill yourself with bad habits
Em                                 Bm
To know what you want, know you'll never truly have it

Chorus:
C                             D
New York City, please go easy on me tonight
Em                            Bm
New York City, please go easy on this heart of mine
           C                     D
Cause I'm losing my lover to the arms of another
Em                            Bm
New York City, please go easy on me tonight

When I went away, saw your face in my rear-view
I know that look on your face, that I had lost you

Chorus:
New York City, please go easy on me tonight
New York City, please go easy on this heart of mine
'Cause I'm losing my lover to the arms of another
New York City, please go easy on me tonight

C
You promised, I promised
D
I never knew I could be this selfish
Em
Nights downtown, it's a new town
Bm
But I keep thinking I see your face in the crowd
C
But you're not here and you won't be
D                                      Em Bm
Cause you love me enough to let go of me

Chorus:
New York City, please go easy on me tonight
New York City, please go easy on this heart of mine
'Cause I'm losing my lover to the arms of another
New York City, please go easy on me tonight
