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

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)
