Tom: G
G Bm
I'm sittin' in this New York City hotel room alone
Am C
Wishin' I was somewhere else or on my way back home
G Bm Em
Nashville Tennessee I know that's where I do belong
C D G
Cause I don't know no New York City song
[Verse]
G Bm
They know I'm from Dixie when I open up my mouth
Am C
They don't treat the ladies here the way they do down south
G Bm Em
I thought I could make it here but I can't get along
C D
Cause I don't know no New York City song
C D G C
And Lord I'd like to tell you just how much I'd like to leave
G C D
Cause in my mind that south bound song is tuggin' on my sleeve
Am C G
New York City ain't the place a country girl should be
Am C D
New York City ain't the place for me
G Bm
Today I walked a New York City avenue downtown
Am C
I've never seen so many people hurryin' around
G Bm Em
And when I smile they look as if to say that smiling's wrong
C D G E
No I don't know no New York City song
[Chorus]
A C#m
I'm sittin' in this New York City hotel room alone

Wishin' I was somewhere else or on my way back home
A C#m F#m
Nashville Tennessee I know that's where I do belong
D E A
Cause I don't know no New York City song
