Alicia Keys - Empire State Of Mind Part 2

capo 2

E Amaj7
ooohh new york x2

verse 1

E Amaj7
grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes
E Amaj7
noise is always loud , there are sirens all around and the streets are mean
E Amaj7
if i can make it here , i can make it anywhere , that’s what they say
E Amaj7
seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on broadway

pre – chorus :

G#
even if it aint all it seems , i got a pocketful of dreams
chorus :
Amaj7
baby , i’m from new york
E
concrete jungle where dreams are made of
B
there’s nothing you can’t do
Amaj7
now you’re in new york
E
these streets will make you feel brand new
big lights will inspire you
Amaj7
let’s hear it for new york , new york , new yoooork!

verse 2 :
on the avenue , there ain’t never a curfew , ladies work so hard
such a melting pot , on the corner selling rock , preachers pray to god
hail a gypsy cab , takes me down from harlem to the brooklyn bridge
some will sleep tonight with a hunger for more than an empty fridge

pre – chorus
G#
i’m gonna make it by any means , i got a pocketful of dreams
chorus :
Amaj7
baby , i’m from new york
E
concrete jungle where dreams are made of
B
there’s nothing you can’t do
now you’re in new york
these street will make you feel brand new
big lights will inspire you
let’s hear it for new york , new york , new yoooork!

Amaj7
one hand in the air for the big city ,
B
street lights , big dreams all looking pretty
C#m
no place in the world that can com – pare
G#
put your lighters in the air , everybody say yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah

chorus :
Amaj7
in new york
E
concrete jungle where dreams are made of
B
there’s nothing you can’t do
now you’re in new york
these streets will make you feel brand new
big lights will inspire you
Amaj7 E
