             Am             E
If you want money in your pocket
      Am               E
and a top hat on your head
  Am               Dmaj7         E              E
a hot meal on your table and a blanket on your bed

              Am            C
-Chorus-well today is grey skies
          Dmaj7      Am
        tomorrow is tears
          F                         E          Am
        you'll have to wait till yesterday is here

          Am                E
Well I'm going to New York City
          Am           E
and I'm leaning on a train
    Am             Dmaj7 
and if you want to stay behind and
          E             E
wait till I come back again

(Chorus)
           Am          F 
-Bridge-If you want to go
         Am                 F
        where the rainbows end
                Am           F         Am
        you'll have to say goodbye
            Am               F
        all our dreams come true
         Am       F
        baby up ahead
                 Am               F     E7sus4
        and it's out were your memories lie

          Am                E 
well the road is out before me
         Am               E
and the moon is shining bright
        Am           Dmaj7
what I want you to remember
        E         E
as I disappear tonight

(Chorus)
