Bm          Fm                     A                   *(notes) 
  and i had begun to doubt all the things that were me 
A             Amaj7       A7                  F# 
  being in so many places   you know i've run so many races 
Bm                     Fm                 A 
  i've looked into the empty faces of the people of the night 
F#m                                A                       F#m

                       A       F#m      A                     F#m

  to get out of here   cause new york's not my home 
A                Amaj7               A7                  F# 
  though all the streets are crowded   there's something strange 
              Bm                       Fm                    A

         *(notes)  A            Amaj7             A7 
  at home           i thought i made the big time   i learned a lot 
                     F#                 Bm 
  of lessons off the quick and know i'm telling you that they were 
  Fm                  A                        F#m

A                       F#m                     
  don't you know that i got to get out of here  
        Bm__                     
  cause new york's not my home
