New York Shuffle

pre>(spoken)  all right, let's 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 revolution's due

G 		     a

She said i've been around from town to town

G		       a

And i learned to love and hate

G			  a

But time don't 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 you're going to see some action

Better shoot them in the street

Grab a gun before the police come,

Don't tell me you're too sweet

Down in the alley they are hitting harder

Not as blown as a ball can be

They're 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>
