Verse:
      A (x02220@1)            DOh, (xx0232@1)I packed up suit cases,
        F#m (244222@1)            EOne (022100@1)for clothes one for dreams,
           A (x02220@1)       D (xx0232@1)           F#m (244222@1)          EAnd (022100@1)on the five hour flight I made my fool proof schemes,
         D (xx0232@1)         E (022100@1)       C#m (x13321@4)         F#mThat (244222@1)I'd eat the big apple not choke on the seeds,
    D (xx0232@1)           E (022100@1)          F#m (244222@1)  -> E-> (022100@1)Dand (xx0232@1)they'd name a street after me,
     D (xx0232@1)          E (022100@1)         A (x02220@1)   Ebut (022100@1)this was not destined to be,

A (x02220@1)            D (xx0232@1)             F#m (244222@1)       E'Cause (022100@1)every actor, model, musician, in the food industry,
           A (x02220@1)       D (xx0232@1)         F#m (244222@1)       ESmiles (022100@1)for tips to afford their 300 square feet,
           D (xx0232@1)       E (022100@1)             C#m (x13321@4)          F#m (244222@1)and at the end of auditions all they hear is "next please",
      D (xx0232@1)        E (022100@1)            F#m (244222@1) -> E-> (022100@1)DSo (xx0232@1)at night they drop to their knees,
 D (xx0232@1)          E (022100@1)        A"God (x02220@1)can you still hear me?",

A (x02220@1)           DOn (xx0232@1)the sidewalks and subways,

         A (x02220@1)          D (xx0232@1)             F#m (244222@1)               ELive (022100@1)the giant sized, judging eyes of those who've yet to fail,

         D (xx0232@1)            E (022100@1)             APast (x02220@1)the ringing of the city in their ears,

Chorus:
Bm (x24432@1)       G (320003@1)                    DSo (xx0232@1)welcome to New York aren't you lonely now?,

[Guitar Solo]

The Chorus is then repeated twice, with a key change up for each. So the first 
repetition follows the progression:

C#m (x13321@4)      A (x02220@1)             Eetc. (022100@1)
So welcome to New York. . .

The second repetition follows the progression:

Ebm,    B,               F#etc. (244322@1)So..., to..., New..., lonely now. . .

Enjoy.
