[Verse 1]
D
Thousand feet above the ground
G
Lookin' o'er a postcard town
D C G
As one-by-one lights go out in Brooklyn
D
Looks like the stars have all fell down
G
Spread themselves across the ground
D C G
Like a farmer sowin' seed in the spring-time
D G D G

[Verse 2]
D
Taxi rides just after dark
G
Those eyes could'a lit up Central Park
D C G
Then kiss like you see in the movies
D
Wore my heart around your neck
G
And I'm sure that I would not forget
D C G
This city, this moment, this girl

[Chorus]
C G C G
Manhattan, manhattan
C G D
Oh where have you been all my life?
D G D G

[Verse 3]
D
Out of town kids with nothin' to do
G
Fake ID's and cowboy boots
D C G
And a friend to keep us loaded for the weekend
D
We'll catch the A Train to Chamber Street
G
Jenny's got a girl that she wants me to meet
D C G
She'll get me high, she'll get me drunk, she'll get me off

[Verse 4]
D
Grand Central is still alive
G
As we rush to jump the 10:05
D C G
And make sure that we get back to Brooklyn
D
And tomorrow mornin' we'll be on track
G
To the town that tries to hold us back
D C G
But you haven't seen the last of us Manhattan
