New York, New York by Ryan Adams

1, 2, 3

Well, I shuffled through the city on the 4th of July
I had a firecracker waiting to blow
Breaking like a robber who was making his way
To the cities of Mexico
Lived in an apartment out on Avenue A
I had a tar-hut on the corner of 10th
Had myself a lover who was (1)__________ than gold
But I've been broken up and (2)____________ up since
And love don't play any games with me
Anymore like she did before

The world won't wait, so I better shake
That thing (3)__________ out (4)__________ through the door
Hell, I still love you, New York

Found (5)____________ a picture that would fit in the folds
Of my wallet and it stayed pretty good
Still amazed I didn't lose it on the roof of the place
When I was drunk and I was thinking of you
Every day the children they were singing their tune
Out on the streets and you could hear from inside
Used to take the (6)____________ up to Houston and 3rd
I would wait for you and I'd try to hide
And love won't play any games with you
Anymore if you don't want 'em to

The world won't wait and I watched you shake
But honey, I don't blame you
Hell, I still love you, New York

Hell, I still (7)________ you, New York

New York

I remember Christmas in the blistering cold
In a church on the (8)__________ west side
Babe, I stood their singing, I was holding your arm
You were holding my trust (9)________ a child
Found a lot of trouble out on Avenue B
But I tried to keep the overhead low
Farewell to the city and the love of my life
At least we left (10)____________ we had to go
And love won't play any games with you
Anymore if you want 'em to

So we better shake this old thing out the door
I'll always be thinkin' of you
I'll always love you though New York

I'll always love you though New York

I'll always love you though New York

I'll always love you though New York
New York, New York
