G5                              D5   
Float down the river with my Iddy and Jay 
C5                        D5             
Get off the boat and board a plan to JKF and I  
G5               D5 
ain't slept a week 
     C5                             D5                G5                  
But it don't seem to matter to the subway speakers  speak (and speak)

And the goodness yesterday No one round oh 
     G5                           D5  
and I still recognize her after all these years 
    C5                    D5      G5      D5 
and she still looks the same

G5                       D5 
 Just when I was sick and lonely  
                     C5  
There was a shaking on the ground  
                  D5 
We were hiding from the rain 
                     G5  
We were riding on the train
