I used to live in new york city. 
Am         Dm                 G    G7 C G 
Everything there was dark and dirty. 
Am         F            G       G7 Eb G 
Outside my window was a steeple, 
Am                Fm                 G      G7 G G7 
With a clock that always said twelve-thirty.

Young girls are coming to the canyon, 
F          Fm                      G      G7 
And in the mornings i can see them walking. 
C                       G 
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn, 
F           Fm               C 
And i can't keep myself from talking. 

Am           D                   G       G7 C G 
At first, so strange, to feel so friendly. 
Am          Dm                 G         G7 C G 
To say good morning and really mean it. 
Am            F                 G    F Eb G 
To feel these changes happening in me, 
Am         Fm            G         G7 G G7 
But not to notice till i feel it.

Cloudy waters cast no reflection. 
Am        Dm               G      G7 C G 
Images of beauty lie there stagnant. 
Am         F            G        F Eb G 
Vibrations bounce in no direction, 
Am            Fm             G        G7 G G7 
And lie there shattered into fragments.
