New York City Cops - The Strokes
Tabbed by: tom murphy
Tuning: standard
Here in the streets so mechanised
Rise to the bottom of the meaning of life
Studied all the rules and I want no part
But I let you in just to break this heart
Even though it was only one night it was
........Fucking strange
Nina's in the bedroom,
She said time to go now
But leavin', it ain't easy
I've got to let go, Oh I've got to let go
And the hours they ran slow
I said every night she just can't stop sayin'
**************************************************************
New York City Cops, New York City Cops
New York City Cops, They ain't too smart
**************************************************************
New York City Cops, New York City Cops
New York City Cops, They ain't too smart
New York City Cops, New York City Cops
New York City Cops, They ain't too smart
x4 (intro) (solo)
Oh, kill me now cos I let you down
I swear one day I'm gonna leave this town
(n.c.)
Stop
Yes I'm leavin', Cos this just won't work
They act like Romans, But they're just like Turks
Some time, in your prime, See me, I like the summertime
but hey...
Nina's in the bedroom,
She said time to go now
Oh leavin', it ain't easy
I've got to let go, I've got, to let, go, Oh
Trapped in an apartment
She would not let them get her
She wrote it in a letter
Oh I've got to come clean
The authorities, they've seen
And darling I'm somewhere in between
I said every night, she just can't stop sayin'
New York City Cops, New York City Cops
New York City Cops, They ain't too smart
New York City Cops, New York City Cops
New York City Cops, They ain't too smart
