Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]King of 7th Avenue[Dsus4][D]
I can count all the [G]lights [Asus4]in the ci[D]ty from the
[Bm]ledge on the twenty [A]seventh [G]floor.
There must [Bm]be ten thousand
win[A]dow [G]or more.
It's a [Em]hobby I can count on,
helps me for[A]get about the cold.
And I [Em]get to meet the neighbors for
[A]as long as the ledge [Asus4]will hold.
[A]In [G]the[A] wi[Asus4]ndow acro[A]ss [D]from me,[Asus4]
[A]a m[D]an is committ[Bm]ing a ro[Asus4]b bery.[A]
[G]It's another for[Bm]m of
the New York [A]City lottery.
[G]His ear[Em]s must be burning,
he drops the [A]bag and he [Asus4]stares.
I'm the [Em]man out on
the building.
Yes, there's [A]no net [Asus4]down ther[A]e
And there's a [D]woman below
that I [G]see.
[D]Her silhouette is quite [A]beautiful.
[Asus4]It plays [A]tricks on[D] my memory.[G]

[Verse 2]
Puts [D]a face on the shadows in front [A]of me.
[Asus4]A crowd b[Em]elow is forming,
beneath this [A]window ledge, my [Asus4]throne.
I am the [Em]King of Seventh Avenue,
New York [A]City [Asus4]is my hom[A]e.[D]

[Verse 3]
I think the sirens have [G]come for [D]me,
Their searchlight[Bm]s reach
up to the [A]balcony.
[G]They bathe me in lig[Bm]ht,
blind me so [A]I can't s[G]ee.

[Verse 4]
I hear [Em]the crowd all ask for jumping,
While the [A]cops all ask [Asus4]for calm.
Even the [Em]pigeons think I'm something,
The whole [A]city is in my [Asus4]palms.[A]
[D]My daughter[A] Lisa say[G]s to me,
"Dad the world [Asus4]is yours,[A] and it's

[Verse 5]
[D]
beautiful.
Don't throw [A]it all away
[Asus4]on memories.
[G]

[Verse 6]
You've got to meet new people"
Yeah, [D]that will be good for [A]me.[Asus4][D]
Good [A]for [Asus4]me.[D]
Good for [Asus4]me.[D][G][Asus4][D]
[Bm][Asus4][G][Bm][A]
[G][D]
So I watch the lovers be[G]hind
[Asus4]their shades.[D]
I've seen them em[Bm]brace after
[A]their furious [G]fights.
I've watched them mend [Bm]their fences,
make their [A]love all [G]night.
Only to tear [Em]them down again,

[Verse 7]
Change the [A]limits, change the boundaries.
The same be[Em]ginning, the same end.

[Verse 8]
Yet the [A]story still astounds me.
[Asus4][A][D][G][D]
[A][Asus4][A][D]
[G]The [D]who[A]le[Asus4][A][Em]
world now is watching.
From this win[A]dow ledge my throne,
I'm the [Em]King of Seventh Avenue
And to[A]night I'm not [Asus4]alone. I'[A]m[D][Asus4]
[G]not[Asus4] alone.[D]
