Аккорды Gordon Lightfoot - Cold Hands From New York

CAPO: 2nd Fret

[INTRO:] G

[VERSE 1:]

I came down to Albany 
                                   F
To New York, to find what I'd been missing 
  G
I looked across the river to 
                                     F
The city where the windows all stood glistening
        Em
I stood listening 

[VERSE 2:]
  G
Into a tunnel I did ride 
                                         F
Like a grave inside, but I was young and able 
     G
When I came out the other end 
                                       F
Through the smoke the winter light was feeble
  Em
Unreadable 

[VERSE 3:]
G
I was optimistic though 
                                F
A cabbie told me where to go, I thanked him 
  G
A face of white a face of brown 
                              F
Here a smile, there a look of danger
      Em
For a stranger

[CHORUS 1:]
Dm
It was too unreal for me 
  Em
I found no one who trusted me 
      F
There was no man could offer me 
  G                      F   Em
A cold hand from New York______

[CHORUS 2:]
G
Cold hands from New York 
            F
A voice within you cries
                      G
"Won't someone please help me"

I'll do the same for you one day 
   F                               G         Em  A7  F  D  D7
If you should ever pass my way and need me 

[VERSE 4:]
G
I came down to live alone 
                               F
In New York, the city of the living 
G
There were fortunes at my feet
                                       F
But most of men were taking, none were giving
      Em
Or forgiving 

[VERSE 5:]
G
Children ran and children played 
                               F
And roses grew in alleyways, I saw them 
G
There were men who lived in style 
                                     F
And others who had died where no one knew them 
              Em
'Because they couldn't win 

[VERSE 6:]
G
There were parks where old men slept 
                                      F
And dingy rooms where babies crept, unwanted 
     G
'Til I began to ask myself 
                                    F
If there was hope or if it mattered what they did
   Em
Or if they lived

[CHORUS 1:]
Dm
It was too unreal for me 
  Em
I found no one who trusted me 
      F
There was no man could offer me 
  G                      F   Em
A cold hand from New York______

[CHORUS 2:]
G
Cold hands from New York 
            F
A voice within you cries
                      G
"Won't someone please help me"

I'll do the same for you one day 
   F                               G         Em  A7  F  D  D7
If you should ever pass my way and need me 

[VERSE 7:]
G
I came down to Albany 
                                   F
To New York, to find what I'd been missing 
  G
I looked across the river to 
                                     F
The city where the windows all stood glistening
        Em
I stood listening 

[VERSE 8:]
G
There were prophets in the squares 
                                        F
And people there who smiled and said forget it
G
There were lovers in the park 
                                    F
And there was danger in the dark, I felt it
    Em
So afraid of it 

[VERSE 9:]
G
There were preachers of the word 
                                  F
And poets who were never heard, I heard them 
G
There were those who would not try 
                     F
To learn the measure of the lie
        Em
They're living 

[VERSE 10:]
  G
I heard a young musician play 
                                      F
In a place where they paid you not to listen
  G
I heard a woman scream for help 
                                          F
While men stood by and offered their best wishes
       Em
That's how it is

[CHORUS 1:]
Dm
It was too unreal for me 
  Em
I found no one who trusted me 
      F
There was no man could offer me 
  G                      F   Em
A cold hand from New York______

[CHORUS 2:]
G
Cold hands from New York 
            F
A voice within you cries
                      G
"Won't someone please help me"

I'll do the same for you one day 
   F                               G    
If you should ever pass my way and need me 

[CHORUS 2:]
Cold hands from New York 
            F
A voice within you cries
                      G

   F                               G
If you should ever pass my way and need me

                      G

   F                               G         Em  A7  F  D  D7
If you should ever pass my way and need me
