-- (Verse 1)
A A7M
You can have Manhattan
F#m E4
I know its for the best
A A7M
Ill gather up the avenues
F#m E4
And leave them on your doorstep
D7M C#m
And Ill tip toe away
E4 E
So you wont have to say
A A7M F#m F7M
You heard me leave
-- (Verse 2)
A A7M
You can have Manhattan
F#m E4
I know it?s what you want
A A7M
The bustle and the buildings
F#mE
The weather in the fall
D7M C#m
And I?ll bow out of place
E4 E
To save you some space
F#mF#mB
For somebody new
-- (Chorus)
D
You can have Manhattan
Dm
Cause I can?t have you

A A7M
You can have Manhattan
F#m E4
The one we used to share
A A7M
The one where we were laughing
F#mE
And drunk on just being there
D7M C#m
Hang on to the reverie
E4 E
Could you do that for me?
F#mF#mB
Cause I?m just too sad to
-- (Chorus)
D
You can have Manhattan
Dm
Cause I can?t have you

A A7M F#mEDC#mDA
And so it goes
E
One foot after the other
Dm
Til black and white begin to color in
A A7M F#mE
And I know
DC#m
That holding us in place
F7M
Is simply fear of what?s already changed
-- (Interlude)
A A7M F#mEA A7M F#mE
-- (Verse)
A A7M
You can have Manhattan
F#m E4
I?ll settle for the beach
A A7M
And sunsets facing westward
F#m F7M
With sand beneath my feet
D7M C#m
I?ll wish this away
E4 E
Just missing the days
F#mF#mB
When I was one half of two
-- (Chorus)
D
You can have Manhattan
Dm
Cause I can?t have you
-- (Outro)
