West Side Highway

            E
It’s going down outside
         G#m                                 C#m
And I haven’t held my friends now for a month or so
         B                                                 E
Next time I’ll squeeze them harder ‘fore I let them go
G#m             C#m     B
I’ll let them go

         E                         G#m
See my city coming together
                                C#m
Like they did when I was just two years old
   B                                   E           G#m
I came up in this mindset now I’ll let is show
        C#m             B
I’ll let it show

A                           B
Riding up the West Side Highway
        E
Feeling Sundays as a child
                 Am
If I close my eyes
     G#m                       F#m
Be asleep in the back of a tandem
        B
Bicycle ride

   E
November on the rooftop
G#m                     C#m
New York City holds our breath tonight
B                             E            G#m
Needle on the TV slides from left to right
              C#m          B
From left to right

E
And on my father’s shoulders
G#m                           C#m
Marching then and we’re still marching now
B                                       E           G#m
Screaming with my neighbors who’ve been so let down
        C#m      B
So let down

A                           B
Riding up the West Side Highway
        E
Feeling Sundays as a child
                 Am
If I close my eyes
     G#m                       F#m
Be asleep in the back of a tandem
        B
Bicycle ride

   E            E/D#
It feels so familiar
     E/C#             E/C
To knock on the door
            A           F#m         E
Wanna stand in the place I was born
