Dm                  A#               F  C
I know what you're drinkin' at that bar
    Dm                A#                F   C
And he might buy you rounds and go too far, ohhhh
 Dm                 A#
There's probably a better time and place
 F                C
For what I know that I'm about to say
     A#
But anyways,
           C
Here goes nothin'

Chorus:
                    A#
There's gotta be a way I can get you back
               Dm                    F
More than two ways on this one-way track
                A#
One leadin' to somethin' I don't wanna lose
                      Dm                   F
The straight and the narrow right back to you
              A#
The future I planned only had you in it
                  Dm                   F
I'm needin' your smile every New York minute
         A#                                C
Girl, I need you back, I need you here to stay
                    Dm  A# F C
There's gotta be a waaaaay

I keep checkin' my phone, hopin' that you called
'Cause the second you do, baby, you know I'm gone
There's nothin' anybody else could say
That wouldn't stop me to save the day
But you'll never call 'cause, damn it,
he's got it made

Chorus

 C                 Dm  A# F C
There's gotta be a way

Chorus:
There's gotta be a way I can get you back
More than two ways on this one-way track
One leadin' to somethin' I don't wanna lose
The straight and the narrow right back to you
The memories I had only had you in 'em
I'm needin' your smile every New York minute
Yeah, I'm all torn up, I can't live life this way
And I need you back, I need you here to stay
There's gotta be a way
There's gotta be a way
