A            Amaj7             A7           F#
  things are spinning round me   and all my thoughts were cloudy
Bm          Fm            A          *(notes)
  and i had begun to doubt all the things that were me
A             Amaj7       A7         F#
  being in so many places   you know i've run so many races
Bm            Fm                 A
  i've looked into the empty faces of the people of the night
F#m                       A              F#m
  something is  just not right      cause i know that i've got
              A       F#m      A            F#m
  to get out of here    i'm so alone    don't you know that i got
                    Bm__           (A  A/D A  A7)
  to get out of here   cause new york's not my home
A                Amaj7               A7         F#
  though all the streets are crowded   there's something strange
              Bm              Fm           A
  about it    i've lived there about a year and i never once felt
         *(notes)  A            Amaj7             A7
  at home           i thought i made the big time   i learned a lot
            F#                 Bm
  of lessons off the quick and know i'm telling you that they were
  Fm         A               F#m
  not the nice kind    it's been so long since i have felt fine
A                    F#m            A       F#m
  that's the reason that i've got to get out of here   i'm so alone
A              F#m
  don't you know that i got to get out of here
        Bm__
  cause new york's not my home
