I'm goin' back to New York City

I just can't wait no more for you 
          C     G               Am     F 
I got so lonely, sold what you gave me

'Cept that raincoat, the famous blue

Maybe I'll go out Chicago

Ain't that where the blues belong?

I heard you came by, shook up by the radio 
F                    C      G           C     
Somethin' about the topback, wayfarers on

Bridge 

G             Am                    G                F           C 
And all this must've been comin' a long, long time, 29 years of nerves on fire 
Am               G                  F                         
Nobody came and nobody saw, made a wreck of myself with the headlights on 
Am                  G                       F                             C 
Worked these hands straight down the bone, carried the weight until the weight took over 
G 
Ended up standing at a fork in the road with you

Back when local bars and your crooked heart was my home, mmhmm... 


Outro 
   
G            C             G              Am              F 
And I will never know the town where you finally settled down 
          C             G                 Am         F 
With the top back on a Cadillac and your sunglasses on 
     C                  G               Am              F 
And you can't make me whole, I have to find that on my own 
       C                 G               Am               F              C        
But I held you, babe, a long, long time ago, and we were open all night long.
