A
L.A. is fine, the sun shines most of the time
D
And the feeling is laid back
E
Palm trees grow and rents are low
        E7
But you know I keep thinking about
A
Making my way back

A
Well, I'm New York City born and raised
                                   D
But nowadays, I'm lost between two shores
E
L.A. is fine, but it ain't home
E7                                   A Asus4 A
New York's home but it ain't mine no more

        A Asus4 A          D Dsus4 D
I am, I said,    to no one there
    D                        Bm       A
And no one heard at all, not even the chair
        A Asus4 A           D Dsus4 D
I am, I cried,   I am, said I
    D                      Bm       A
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
E            A      *
  Leavin' me lonely still

A D E
A D E7

A
Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of being a king
D
and then became one
      E
Well, except for the names and a few other changes
E7                  A
If you talk about me, the story's the same one

A
But I got an emptiness deep inside
                                   D
And I've tried but it won't let me go
E
And I'm not a man who likes to swear
E7                                        A Asus4 A
But I never cared for the sound of being alone

        A Asus4 A          D Dsus4 D
I am, I said,    to no one there
    D                        Bm       A
And no one heard at all, not even the chair
N.C.    A Asus4 A           D Dsus4 D
I am, I cried,   I am, said I
    D                      Bm       A
And I am lost, and I can't even say why

        A Asus4 A        D Dsus4 D
I am, I said     I am, I cried
  D    A
I am . . . .

* Some people have suggested that this line should end on E, I believe it stays on A but 
I could be wrong
