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
Bm                           D
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

[Tag]
     D              E           D  A
Cause I don't know no New York City song
