[1] Ridin' in planes and hailin' cabs I [4] been on the road so [1] long
[1] Lookin' for the [3m] sunshine [6m] every day [2maj] that I been a-missin' so [5] long
Two blocks over one street across and [4] uptown 'round and [1] down
Lord there musta been somethin' just hidin' out somewhere [5] someplace I ain't [1] found

[1] Annie orphan Annie are your [4] Nashville nights still [5] warm
[6m] Somewhere to the west of town well it's [2maj] a-comin' up a [5] storm
Are your [4] rivers dark and [3m] muddy where the [5] green swamp willows [1] grow
Nine more [5] days and [3m] I'll be [6m] home lord [5] back in off the [1] road

A-pickin' and a-grinnin' and a-playin' their games so listen to what I say
Lord I wish I was down in Nashville town about Fifth and Broadway
Where the Cumberland rows the soft breeze blows and home it ain't far away
But here I sit in New York City just a-hangin' out every day
