INTRO:
C G C F C G C
When you chew my ear off, try and let me know, you will never get another piece of me
C G C F C G C
'Cause in a New York blackout things go kinda slow, and you miss the things you never thought you'd see
G C F C G
There's still so many things I want to be, sometimes I just don't even want to sleep
C G C F C G C
In a New York blackout it's so hard to see all the angels that are looking after me
G C F C G
The lights fell soft, the water in your eyes, and the dead lift there heads and come alive
C G Bb C G Bb Am Bb F
And I may never escape this darkened city, but still I'm trying to find you in this blackout
C G C F C G C
Where it's warm inside and always open late and the doors to hell look just like heavens gate
C G C F C G C
And you never know what going on inside 'til you step out in the cold and seal your fate
G C F C G
You might just stop in and say hello but you've got much more important places to go
F C G
Make sure you let everybody know
C G Bb C G Bb
And I may never enlight this darkened city, still I'm trying to find you in this blackout
Am G# G
In this blackout, in this blackout

INTRO:
C G C F C G C
In a New York blackout you might think I'm gone but I'll wake up on the front steps of your door
