  • Pre>(spoken) all right, lets do the new york shuffle (over d)
  • A d a d a d
  • D a
  • Manhattan baby with a sing song voice
  • G d
  • She got her place in the human zoo
  • D a
  • I went to living on the boulevard
  • G a
  • Now that the revolutions due
  • G a
  • She said Ive been around from town to town
  • G a
  • And I learned to love and hate
  • G a
  • But time dont change not a unique game,
  • G a d
  • They just keep herding through that gate
  • Chorus
  • D a
  • And do the new york shuffle, baby new york scuffle,
  • G d
  • Going to stay awake all night
  • D a
  • Do the new york shuffle, baby new york scuffle,
  • G a d d a d
  • Get yourself uptight, get uptight
  • Stick around kids youre going to see some action
  • Better shoot them in the street
  • Grab a gun before the police come,
  • Dont tell me youre too sweet
  • Down in the alley they are hitting harder
  • Not as blown as a ball can be
  • Theyre burnin flags here and just in drag here
  • It sure is a sight to see
  • Repeat chorus
  • Bridge
  • Bm e bm e
  • Mister mayor give the key, let me lock you up
  • Bm e g a
  • Throw that key down the deepest subway in new york, new york
  • Instrumental verse (2 lines end on d)
  • Ah primal scream I had electric dream
  • I had to bang my head against the ground
  • I have to get out quick before I get as sick
  • As the people living in this town
  • Bounce me off the pavement bounce me off the wall
  • Bounce me off a taxi car
  • Give me a shot of that old jack daniels
  • And put me down in bars
  • Repeat chorus twice then
  • Down in new york city, get upight
  • Down in new york cbaby, get uptight
  • Tight tight tight tight tight get uptight
  • Tight tight tight tight tight get uptight /pre>
