 G                  D             C
Walking through a crowd the village is aglow
   G             D              C
Kaleidoscope of loud heartbeats under coats
G          D           C
Everybody here wanted something more
 G               D               C
Searching for a sound we hadn’t heard before,
and it said

Chorus:
 G              D   C
Welcome to New York, it’s been waiting for you
 G              D             C
Welcome to New York, welcome to New York
 G              D   C
Welcome to New York, it’s been waiting for you
 G              D             C
Welcome to New York, welcome to New York
G                 D
It’s a new soundtrack
                       C            Em
I could dance to this beat forever more
                    D
The lights are so bright
                      C
But they never blind me, me
 G              D   C
Welcome to New York, it’s been waiting for you
 G              D             C         G
Welcome to New York, welcome to New York

When we first dropped our bags on apartment floors
Took our broken hearts, put them in a drawer
Everybody here was someone else before
And you can want who you want
Boys and boys and girls and girls

Chorus

Em         D    C
Like any great love, it keeps you guessing
Em        D    C
Like any real love, it’s ever changing
Em         D   C
Like any true love, it drives you crazy
 G                D              C
But you know you wouldn’t change anything,
anything, anything

Chorus:
Welcome to New York, it's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York, welcome to New York
Welcome to New York, it's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York, welcome to New York
It's a new soundtrack, I could dance to this beat
The lights are so bright, but they never blind me
Welcome to New York (New soundtrack)
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York
The lights are so bright but they never blind me
Welcome to New York
So bright, they never blind me
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
