LEAVING NEW YORK REM Em Eb ( x 2 ) Em Eb C Bb Am7 It's quiet now, and what it brings is everything... Em Eb C Bb Am7 Comes calling back a brilliant night, I'm still awake Em Eb C Bb Am7 I looked ahead I'm sure I saw you there Em Eb C Bb Am7 You don't need me to tell you now, that nothing can compare G D You might have laughed if I told you C Am You might have hidden the frown G D You might have succeeded in changing me C Am I might have been turned around G D It's easier to leave than to be left behind C Am Leaving was never my proud G D Leaving New York never easy C Am I saw the life fading out Now life is sweet and what it brings I tried to take... The loneliness, it wears me out, it lies in wait And on our lost till in my eyes, shadow of necklace across your thigh I might have lived my life in a dream, but i swear, this is real Memory fuses in shatters out glass, but carry your future, forget the past But it's you, it's what i feel. You might have laughed if I told you (it's pulling me apart) You might have hidden the frown (change) You might have succeeded in changing me (it's pulling me apart) I might have been turned around (change) It's easier to leave than to be left behind (it's pulling me apart) Leaving was never my proud (change) Leaving New York never easy (it's pulling me apart) I saw the light fading out Em Eb Em Eb Em You find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart Eb You find it in your heart, change... G D I told you, forever, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart) C Am I told you ,I love you, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, change) G D I told you, forever, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart) C Am I told you, I love you, I love you, forever (you find it in your heart, change) You might have laughed if I told you (forever, forever,I told You, forever) You might have hidden the frown (change) You might have succeeded in changing me (it's pulling me apart) I might have been turned around (change) It's easier to leave than to be left behind (it's pulling me apart) Leaving was never my proud (change) Leaving New York never easy (it's pulling me apart) I saw the life fading out (change) Leaving new york never easy (it's pulling me apart) I saw the light fading out (change) Leaving new york never easy (it's pulling me apart) I saw the life fading out (change) Eb Em ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ INTRO: x2 Em Eb E-3---------3----------6--------6------ B---5---5-----5---5--------8--------8-- G-----4---------4--------8---8----8---8 ***************************************************************************************** The above is solely MY INTERPRETATION of this great song, in a format aimed at learning guitarists.
