A          . Dadd9
Well I shuffled through the city on the 4th of July
Dadd9         A
Like a firecracker waiting to blow
A         ..Dadd9
Breakin’ like a rocket who was making
Dadd9        ..A
His way To the cities of Mexico
A          Dadd9
Lived in an apartment out on Avenue A
Dadd9          .A
I Had a tar-hut on the corner of Tenth
A          Dadd9
Had myself a lover who was finer than gold
Dadd9        .A
But I’ve broken up and busted up since

E     ...A  .. .E    .A
And Love don’t play any games with me Any-

York   

A           ..Dadd9
Found myself a picture that would fit in the folds
Dadd9           A
Of my wallet and it stayed pretty good
A           ..Dadd9
Still amazed I didn’t lose it on the roof of the
Dadd9               .A
Place when I was drunk and I was thinking of you
A            .Dadd9
Every day the children they were singing their tunes
Dadd9               .A
Out on the streets and you could hear from the inside
A           ..Dadd9
Used to take the subway up to Houston and Third
Dadd9           A
I would wait for you and I’d try to hide
E    A    .E   .. .A
And Love won’t play any games with you any-
D   .. .E/D    D  .E/D
More if you don’t want it to ..
E    ...... .A   ....   E .. .....  .A
The World won’t wait and I watched you shake but

I remember Christmas in the blistering cold
Dadd9      ..A
In a church on the Upper West Side

Babe, I stood there singing I was holding your arm
Dadd9       .A
You were holding my trust like a child
A        .Dadd9
Found a lot of trouble out on Avenue B
Dadd9      ..A
But I tried to keep the overhead low
A       .Dadd9
Farewell to the city and the love of my life
Dadd9      A
At least we left before we had to go
E    . .A     E    A
