Tom: C
C C7/E F G
[Verse 1]
C C7/E
Wouldn't changed a single word
F G
Or touch a single note
C C7/E
Of those old songs those New York Songs
F G
Of love that we once wrote
C C7/E
And though it hurts now we're apart
F G
And different dreams pursue
C C7/E
Fragments of those songs remain
F G
In whispered shades of blue
[Chorus]
C D G/B C Em
Old Manhattan melodies
F C G C G
Echo through my broken heart and call me back to you
C D G/B C Em
Old Manhattan melodies...
F C G C G
Why Oh why the echoes cry I only wish I knew
[Verse 2]
C C7/E
Lighthouse shine in Quarter time
F G
And guide me from this coast
C C7/E
In case I run around once more
F G
And meet you or your ghost
C C7/E
I'ver tried I can't turn back the clock
F G
Your ships too long at sea
C C7/E
A dream the river stole away
F G
Oh Misty Melody...
[Chorus]
C D G/B C Em
Old Manhattan melodies...
F C G C G
Echo through my aching heart and tell me you're still true
C D G/B C Em
Old Manhattan melodies
F C G C G
Why Oh why the whole world cries I only wish I knew
[Chorus]
C D G/B C Em
Old Manhattan melodies...
F C G C G
Every note a memory some happy and some blue
C D G/B C Em
Old Manhattan melodies...
F C G F
Whisper through my lonely heart and call me back to you.
C F G C
To You
