verse 1 
         Am     G   C 
When my nerve wore down 
         Am         G             C 
I was assailed by simple little sounds 
          Am     G            C    Bdim Am 
Hammer clangs, sirens in the park 
         F     G      C 
Like I never heard New York 

verse 2 
          Am       G      C 
Blaring brakes, trapped trucks 
          Am       G            C 
Honk and horns, hissing buses stuck  
             Am        G        C    Bdim Am 
Shrieking trains,  barreling berserk 
         F     G      Am 
Like I never heard New York 
         F     G      C 
Like I never heard New York

verse 3 
           Am   G    C 
When the room grew loud, 
               Am      G               C 
I learned to stand in back behind the crowd, 
      Am    G    C 
Dam canals with cork, 
         F     G      C 
Like I never heard New York 

verse 4 
               Am   G    C 
But when the walls gave way, 
          Am      G           C 
I had to flee, I had to back away 
         Am   G     C 
as the whole town barked, 
         F     G      Am 
Like I never heard New York 
         F     G      C 
Like I never heard New York
