[C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
Well, [G]I shuffled
through the [C]city on the 4th of July
I had a firecracker waiting [G]to blow
Breakin' like a [C]rocket
who was makin' its way
To the cities of Mexico
[G]Lived in an apartment
out [C]on Avenue A
I had a tar-hut on on the
corner [G]of 10th
Had myself a [C]lover who was
finer than gold
But I've been broken
up and busted [G]up since

[Verse 2]
And [D]love [G]don't play any [D]games [G]with me,
anymore
[C]Like she did before
The [D]world [G]won't wait,
so [D]I better s[G]hake
That thing [C]right out there
through the door
Hell, I still [D]love you, [G]New York
[C][G][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]
Found myself a picture that would
[C]fit in the folds
Of my wallet and it stayed pretty [G]good
Still amazed I didn't [C]lose it on
the roof of the place
When I was drunk and I was
thinking [G]of you
Every day the children they were
[C]singing their tunes
Out on the streets and you could
hear from in[G]side
Used to take the [C]subway up
to Houston and 3rd
I would wait for you and I'd try to hide
[G]And

[Verse 4]
[D]love [G]won't play any
[D]games [G]with ypu, anymore
[C]If you don't wanna 'em to
The [D]world [G]won't wait and I
[D]watched you[G] shake
But hon[C]ey, I don't blame you
Hell, I still [D]love you, New [G]York[C][G][C]
Hell, I still [G]love you, New York,
[C]New[G] York
[C]

[Verse 5]
[G]
I remember Christmas in the
[C]blistering cold
In a church on the Up[G]per West Side
Babe, I stood there [C]singing,
I was holding your arm
You were holding my trust [G]like a child
Found a lot of trouble out on [C]Avenue B
But I tried to keep the overhead [G]low
[Gm]Farewell to the [C]city and
the love of my life
At least we left before we had [G]to go

[Verse 6]
And [D]love [G]won't play any [D]games with [G]you,
anymore
[C]If you don't want 'em to
So [D]we better [G]shake this
old [D]thing out [G]the door
[C]I'll always be thinkin' of you
I always [D]love you, love New [G]York[C]
I [G]always love you, love New York
[C]I always love y[G]ou, love New York
[C]I always love y[G]ou, love New Y[C]ork
New York, New [G]York
