The snows of New York    (intro)    (sample)

 

               G           D              Am             Em

1. I can see you now by the light of the dawn,

                  C      Am        D

    and the sun is rising slow,

                    G             D                       Am        Em

    We have talked all night, and I can't talk anymore,

                        C           D           G       ~

    but I must stay and you must go.

 

                     G           D                  Am               Em

2. You have always been such a good friend to me,

                          C        Am        D

    through the thunder and the rain,

                                 G        D               Am                 Em

    and when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York,

                   C              D        G

    lift your heart and think of me.

 

                  Em                                   B7

and these are men like you and me.

 

                  G            D                    Am          Em

3. In my dream we walked, you and I to the shore,

                  C           Am       D

    leaving footprints by the sea,

                                G          D              Am               Em

    and when there was just one set of prints in the sand,

                    C           D         G

    at was when you carried me.        + instrumental = verse 3 

 

                                                        C             D         C - G
