[Intro]
G A D
Hmmm mmmm mmmmm mmmm
[Verse]
D G D
The snow got much too deep for me in Denver
G A D
The rain fell way too hard out in L.A.
G A D
I couldn't stand the sandstorms in West Texas
G A7
That's all it took for me to be on my way
D G D
Then a friend told me about the peaches down in Georgia
G A D
He said the weather's fine, boy the livin' sure fits your style
G A D
Well that's why I'm on this work gang in the hot sun
G A7 D
With a redneck judge gettin' ready for an unfair trial
[Chorus]
G A D
But there's a lady on my mind in New York City
G A D
All along she's burned a torch for me
G A D
She stands proud and tall in New York Harbor
G A D
And in time I know she'll see that I go free
G A D
Hmmm mmm mmm mmmm
(key change to E)
[Verse]
E A E
The man told me I'd better change my way of livin'
A B E
He said now we got laws just made for the likes of you
A B E
We ain't got time for your kind here in this town
A B7
He just wouldn't believe I was only passin' thru
E A E
Now let me be the first to say there's gotta be some changes
A B E
And he may be right, some changes oughta be in me
A B E
But the same damn law that put me on this work gang
A B7 E
Give you and me the right to disagree
[Chorus]
A B7 E
There's a lady on my mind in New York City
A B7 E
All along she's burned a torch for me
A B7 E
She stands proud and tall in New York Harbor
A B7 E
And in time I know she'll see that I go free
A B7 E
