Bobby Bare - New York City Snow Chords

[Intro]
D
 
 
[Verse 1]
D                              G
I was learning how to fly when I left Boise City
     D                            A7
Like summer I was headin' for the fall
        D                          G
Now the bitter taste of truth it's gettin' hard to swallow
      D               A7                 D
For a country boy who thought he knew it all
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                                   G
So cold and tired and broke I can't even pay attention
    D                                A7
And loneliness ain't fit and warm to wear
    D                      G
And home is just a word it hurts me now to mention
         D               A7                  D
Yes I've gone too far to get back there from here
 
 
[Chorus]
         G                     D              G                 D         A7
Hear the Salvation Army band a playin' I hear questions but the answers I don't know
    G                                  D            Bm
The silence fell the truth for me will soon be dead rain
             G               A             D    B7  E
Through this cold and lonely New York City snow
 
 
[Bridge]
E                  A                               E
These old New York City sidewalks sure did fool me
                                        B7
I guess the right way was the wrong way when after all
         E                                     A
Lord I'd sell my soul if just one friend could hear me callin' for 'im
E                B7             E
I wish I could afford to make a call
 
 
[Out-Chorus]
         A                     E              A                 E         B7
Hear the Salvation Army band a playin' I hear questions but the answers I don't know
    A                                  E            C#m
The silence fell the truth for me will soon be dead rain
             A               B                  C#m
Through this cold and lonely New York City snow
             A               B             E
Through this cold and lonely New York City snow
