Em7 G/B A7
Once in your life you will find her
DM7 D6 Bm Bm7/E
Someone who turns your heart around
G Em F#7 B7
And next thing you know you're closing down the town
Em7 A7
Wake up and it's still with you
DM7 Bm Bm7/E
Even though you left her way across town
G Em F#7 B7
Wonderin' to yourself, "Hey, what have I found?"
Refrain:
G G/F# Em Em7 F#m Bm
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
G G/F# Em G/B D DM7 B7
I know it's crazy but it's true
G G/F# Em Em7 F#m B7
If you get caught between the moon and New York Ci - ty
G G/F# Em Em7
The best that you can do,
G G/F# Em A7 D
The best that you can do is fall in love.
Em7 G/B A7
Arthur, he does as he pleases;
DM7 D6 Bm Bm7/E
All of his life his master's toys,
G Em F#7 B7
And deep in his heart he's just, he's just a boy.
Em7 G/B A7
Living his life one day at a time,
DM7 D6 Bm Bm7/E
He's showing himself a pretty good time,
G G/F# Em Em7 F#7 B7
He's laughing about the way they want him to be.
Repeat Refrain:
