Intro

/E# x2

 The days were long and the night so cold

 The pages turn and the tale unfolds

 He left me for another lady

 She stood so tall and she never slept

 There was not one moment he could regret

 He left me for another lady

He took my hand one day and told me

  He was leaving

Me disbelieving

 And I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

Had to let him go

Chorus

 Her name was New York, New York and she

Took his heart away from mine

 Her name was New York, New York and she

 She had poisoned his sweet mind. Mm .. mm .. mmmm

The wolves they howl for my lost soul

I fell down a deep black hole

 He left me for another lady

 She poured the drinks and she poured the power

Diamond girl who could talk for hours

 He left me for another lady

Now I am on my own

 He told me

 He was leaving

And I was pleading

 And I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

Had to let him go

Chorus

 The greatest times

 I don't want to hear it

 Your new life tonight

 I don't want to hear it

 The newfound friends

 She introduced you to

 I don't want to know them

 I just want to be with you

Please don't make me go to

 She took your heart away from mine

 Her name was New York, New York

 She poisoned your sweet mind

 Her name was New York, New York

 She took your heart away from mine

 Her name was New York, New York

 She poisoned your sweet mind

 She poisoned your sweet mind...
