[Intro]
B D#m E G
[Verse 1]
B D#m E
I can’t walk down these streets and see all these signs
G
Without you on my mind
B D#m E
Remembering all the days, the New York cliches
G
Those late downtown nights
[Pre-Chorus]
B D#m E
You’re everywhere I go, I can’t help but notice
G
I wouldn’t know you if I’d never come here
[Chorus]
E D# G#m
I lie awake in the city that never sleeps
B
Tryna forget about you and me
D# E
But it’s all that I can see
E D# G#m
I lie awake in the city of broken dreams
B
The city of how we used to be
D# E
Wish I could see it differently
B E
Oh, but it’s covered in you and me
E
I guess I won’t be getting any sleep
‘Til I leave
[Verse 2]
B D#m E
I can’t focus like I should, my vision’s obscured
G
By fuckin’ memory lane, oh
B D#m E
Suppose the work does me good, but I’d go if I could
G Emaj7
‘Cause it don’t feel the same to lie awake
[Chorus]
D# G#m
In the city that never sleeps
B
Tryna forget about you and me
D# E
But it’s all that I can see
E D#
I lie awake in the city of broken dreams
G#m B
The city of how we used to be
D# E
Wish I could see it differently
B E
Oh, but it’s covered in you and me
B D# E
I guess I won’t be getting any sleep
‘Til I leave
D#m E
‘Til I leave
[Bridge]
C#m F#7
Darkness falls under all of the lights
B G#m
Got that Empire State playin’ tricks on my mind
C#m7 F#7
You and your ghost follow me through the night
B E
It haunts me inside
B E
I just can’t close my eyes
[Outro]
D# G#m
I lie awake in the city that never sleeps (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
B
Tryna forget about you and me
D# E
But it’s all that I can see (All that I can see)
E D# G#m
I lie awake in the city of broken dreams
B
The city of how we used to be (How we used to be, yeah, yeah)
D# E
Wish I could see it differently
B E
Oh, but it’s covered in you and me
B D# E
I guess I won’t be getting any sleep
