(Gm7)Au tumn in New (Am7)York,

why does it (C7)seem so in (Fmaj7)vit ing?

(Gm7)Au tumn in New (Am7)York,

it spells the (C7)thrill of first (Cm7)night (F7)ing.

(Bbmaj7)Glit ter ing (Bb6)crowds and (Bbm7)shim mer ing (Eb7)clouds in (Abmaj7)can yons of steel,

(D)they’re

(Cm)mak ing me (Dm)feel

(G7)I’m (C)home.

It’s (Gm7)au tumn in New (Am7)York

that brings the prom ise of (Fmaj7)new

love;

(Cm7)au tumn in New (Dm7)York

is of ten (F7)min gled with (Bbm)pain.

(C7)Dream ers with emp ty (Fm)hands

(Ab7)may (Db)sigh for ex o tic (Db)lands;

it’s (Gm7)au tumn in New (Am7)York,

it’s good to live it a (Fm)gain.

(Gm7)Au tumn in New (Am7)York,

the gleam ing (C7)roof tops at (Fmaj7)sun

down.

(Gm7)Au tumn in New (Am7)York,

it lifts you (C7)up when you’re (Cm7)run

(F7)down.

(Bbmaj7)Jad ed rou (Bb6)és and (Bbm7)gay di vor (Eb7)cees who (Abmaj7)lunch at the Ritz,

(D)will

(Cm)tell you that (Dm)“it’s

(G7)di

This (Gm7)au tumn in New (Am7)York

trans forms the slums in to (Fmaj7)May

fair;

(Cm7)au tumn in New (Dm7)York

you’ll need no (F7)cas tles in (Bbm)Spain.

(C7)Lov ers that bless the (Fm)dark

(Ab7)on (Db)bench es in Cen tral (Db)Park

greet (Gm7)au tumn in New (Am7)York;

it’s good to live it a (Fm)gain.

(Fm)gain.
