Chorus
    A                           C#m 
I'm sittin' in this New York City hotel room alone 
Bm                           D 
Wishin' I was somewhere else or on my way back home 
A            C#m              F#m 
Nashville Tennessee I know that's where I do belong 
     D              E           A 
Cause I don't know no New York City song 
 
Verse
A                             C#m 
They know I'm from Dixie when I open up my mouth 
Bm                                 D 
They don't treat the ladies here the way they do down south 
A                C#m            F#m 
 I thought I could make it here but I can't get along 
     D              E 
Cause I don't know no New York City song 
 
    D              E               A              D 
And Lord I'd like to tell you just how much I'd like to leave 
                      A                 D           E 
Cause in my mind that south bound song is tuggin' on my sleeve 
Bm                            D                A 
New York City ain't the place a country girl should be 
Bm          D                E 
New York City ain't the place for me 
 
  A                          C#m 
Today I walked a New York City avenue downtown 
     Bm                      D 
I've never seen so many people hurryin' around 
    A               C#m         F#m 
And when I smile they look as if to say that smiling's wrong 
  D              E           A  F# 
No I don't know no New York City song 
 
Chorus
    B                           D#m 
I'm sittin' in this New York City hotel room alone 
C#m                           E 
Wishin' I was somewhere else or on my way back home 
B            D#m              G#m 
Nashville Tennessee I know that's where I do belong 
     E              F#           B 
Cause I don't know no New York City song
