[Intro]
G

[Verse]
D
Sometimes when I'm driving late in the night
Em C
When there's that special kind of early morning light
G D
When the evergreen stands out in the dark
Em C G
I'm thinking about that northern state of New York, New York

[Chorus]
D G
New York State was good to me
C G
'Cause I found a wife and made a family
D Em
If anyone asks what it means to me
C G
Well, it's the nearest to home I'll ever be, in New York
G
New York

[Verse]
D
Well, New York city's just a part of the state
Em C
Some people hate it, I think it's great
G D
It's an honest city, won't tell you a lie
Em C G
It'll take your money and look you straight in the eye, New York

[Verse]
D
When the city got too much to take
Em C
When the pressure built up and we thought we'd break
G D
When everyone else was headed south
Em C G
We went our own way, we headed north of New York

[Chorus]
D G
New York State was good to me
C G
'Cause I found a wife and made a family
D Em
If anyone asks what it means to me
C G
Well, it's the nearest to home I'll ever be, in New York
G
New York

[Verse]
D
I wish I could take that trip again
Em C
Five hundred miles up to Lake Champlain
G D
Fishing for supper in a homemade boat
Em C G
The love we made and the songs I wrote of New York
