Bb
LA's fine the sun shines most the time
Eb
And the feeling is laid back
F
Palm trees grow and rents are low

But you know, I keep thinkin about
Bb
Making my way back

Bb
Well I'm New York City born and raised
                              Eb
Nowadays I'm lost between two shores
F
LA's fine but it ain't home
                                     Bb
New York's home but it ain't mine no more
Bb                     Eb
I am I said, to no one there

And no one heard at all
             Bb    F
Not even the chair
Bb                      Eb
I am I cried, I am said I
                                   Bb  F
And I am lost and I can't even say why
                  Bb
Leaving me lonely still

Bb
Did you read about a frog who dreamed of being a king
Eb
And then became one
F
Well except for the names and a few other changes

If you talk about me
Bb
The story is the same one

Bb
Well I've got an emptiness deep inside
                             Eb
I tried, but it won't let me go
F
And I'm not a man who likes to swear, but
                                     Bb
I never cared for the sound of being alone

(refrão)

Bb
Oh no oh no (fade)
