Standard (EADGBE)

(female)

 Oh the city snow makes your brown eyes shine

 We've gotta look real hard to find a reason to cry

 New York, New York is a friend to the traveling kind

And I'm coming around from years of hard times

He's chased me down through the towns and the miles

Once stilled by love he was bound to roll on by

Chorus

And if you feel my love won't leave you

  And if your sorrow - has been your share

  If you are traveling - back to Georgia

  Won't you take - me with you there

(male)

Well I'm long gone darling, lonesome blue

I been thinking of leaving, I been thinking of you

But that big city singing, man I like the way that it shines

Iwas half a mile from Canada waiting on a train

Wondering and wishing I could disappear again

I been killed by love still it takes me to the end of the line

Chorus

(female)

I've been troubled by a love untrue

Its a fool who will drown in his fountain of youth

I can see that now as I'm walking and talking with you

(male)

I been blinded by the sun, wasted in the rain

Scattered in America, and I'm scatterin' again

But if you're going south darling, I guess I'm traveling with you
