Verse 1:

                      F
	When i first saw New York city

I was green down to the core You could see my red neck glowing For a mile or maybe more

                      C
	Between the hustlers and the hookers

I must have made their day Cause they peeled me like an apple,Lawd

                          F
	And sent me on my way

Bridge 1: When you're pushed and shoved and almost mugged It ain't no place to be So i came to one conclusion

             C
	New York ain't for me

Chorus:

              F
	From sea to shining sea

And coast to coast Somewhere in the middle Is the land i love the most

                  C
	I ain't California pretty

I can't survive the Great White Way I'm too dumb for New York city

                          F
	And too ugly for L.A.

Verse 2: I made my way to Tinseltown To Hollywood and Vine Out among those pretty faces I'd surely find a place for mine

              C
	The way i walk-the way i talk

They'll hang on every word But don't call me,i'll call you

                          F
	Was all i ever heard

Bridge 2: In L.A. what they're thinking Ain't what they talk about At least in New York city

            C
	There's never any doubt

Chorus.

             C
	I'm too dumb for New York city

                          F
	And too ugly for L.A.
