New York City Moves To The Sound Of L.A. Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Hey, let's get right
back to the basics,
Every movement made- up is useless,
Same old shape with the
brand new sound

[Verse 2]
Write it off as progress is pointless
[G]That's not who you were
in the eighties,
Stealing your ideas from other cities,
Get it straight when you're
upside down,
Things are looking stale,
It's time to float around

[Verse 3]
I was sick of [G]the spirit,
Sick of image and sound,
Getting thoughts of leaving,

[Verse 4]
But things are letting me down
[F]Now, I [C]know,
That it's [G]all been done before,
And it will all be done again,
[F]So pick up the tre[C]nds,
You dum[G]b Americans
[F]Now, I [C]know,
That it's [G]all been done before,
And it will all be done again,
[F]So pick up the trends

[Interlude 1]
[C][G]

[Verse 5]
[G]Burn it down and rip off the pages,
The kids all over right through the ages
Making sure that it works for now,
Cut your hair and paint
your stupid faces,

[Verse 6]
Let's pretend that [G]we can get together,
Yeah, yeah, let's enjoy one another,
Useless talking about that now,
Everybody still likes to fuck around

[Verse 7]
Take it good on [G]the capture
Going back to the place
And things aren't moving
much further

[Verse 8]
To falling back on their arse
[F]Now, I [C]know,
That it's [G]all been done before,
And it will all be done again,
[F]So pick up the [C]trends,
You dum[G]b Americans
[F]Now, I [C]know,
That it's [G]all been done before,
And it will all be done again,
[F]So pick up the tre[C]nds

[Interlude 2]
[G][Em][G]

[Verse 9]
[G]New York City loves to mess around [Em]with [G]the LA sound,
the LA sound,
New York City loves to mess around with the LA sound,
the LA sound,

[Verse 10]
C'mon
[G]New York City loves to mess around with the LA sound,
the LA sound,
New York City loves to mess
around with the LA sound,

[Interlude 3]
Oh yeah, the LA sound
[G]

[Verse 11]
[F]Now, I [C]know,
That it's [G]all been done before,
And it will all be done again,
[F]So pick up the [C]trends,
You [G]dumb Americans
[F]Now, I [C]know,
That it's [G]all been done before,
And it will all be done again,
[F]So pick up the trend[C]s

[Outro 1]
[G][G]
