New York State Of Mind Harmonica Tabs

NEW YORK STATE OF MIND
By Billy Joel
Key:C

Some folks like to get a-way,
6 6 -5 5 -5 6 6
take a hol-i-day from the neigh-bor-hood
-5 5 -5 6 6 -5 5 -5 5 5
Hop a flight to Mi-am-i beach or to Hol-ly-wood.
7 -7 -7 7 -6 7 -7 -7 7 -6 7 -6 -6
But I’m tak-in’ a Grey-hound
3 6 6 -5 5 -5 5
on the Hud-son Riv-er line
-3 3 -3 4 -5 5 5
I’m in a New York state of mind.
-3 4 -3 -5 -5 4 -3 -3

I’ve seen all the mov-ie stars in their
6 6 -5 5 -5 6 6 -5 5
fan-cy cars and their lim-ou-sines,
-5 6 6 -5 5 -5 5 5
Been high in the Rock-ies
-7 -7 7 -6 7 -7
Un-der the ev-er-greens,
-7 7 -6 7 -7 -6
But I know what I’m need-in’
6 6 6 -5 5 -5 5
and I don’t want to waste more time
-3 3 -3 4 -3 -5 5 5
I’m in a New York state of mind.
-3 4 -3 -5 -5 5 -3 -3

It was so ea-sy liv-in’ day by day
5 5 5 5 -4 -3 3 -3 -4 -4
Out of touch with the rhy-thm and blues,
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3* 4 -5 -3
And now I need a lit-tle give and take,
-5 -5 -5 -5 5* -4 -3 -4 4* 4*
The New York Times, the Dail-y News.
-3 -4 4 4 3 -3 -4 -4
Comes down to re-al-i-ty
6 6 -5 5 -5 6 6
and it’s fine with me
-5 5 -5 6 6
‘cause I’ve let it slide,
-5 5 -5 5 5
Don’t care if it’s Chi-na-town
-7 -7 7 -6 7 -7 -7
Or on Riv-er-side,
7 -6 7 -6 -6
I don’t have an-y rea-sons,
6 6 6 -5 5 -5 5
I’ve left them all be-hind
3 -3 4 -55 5 5
I’m in a New York state of mind.
