[Verse 1]
Am Am/G D G G7 G6 G
I used to live in New York City
Am Am/G Dm G G7 G6 G
Everything there was dark and dirty
Am Am/G Dm G Eb Cm7 G
Outside my window was a steeple
Am Ab G Gadd11 G
with a clock that always said twelve-thirty
[Chorus]
C G7
Young girls are coming to the canyon
F Am G7
And in the mornings I can see them walking
C G7
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn
F Fm C
And I can't keep myself from talking
[Verse 2]
Am Am/G D G G7 G6 G
At first, so strange, to feel so friendly
Am Am/G Dm G G7 G6 G
To say good morning and really mean it
Am Am/G Dm G Eb Cm7 G
To feel these changes happening in me
Am Ab G Gadd11 G
But not to notice till I feel it
[Chorus]
C G7
Young girls are coming to the canyon
F Am G7
And in the mornings I can see them walking
C G7
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn
F Fm C
And I can't keep myself from talking
[Verse 3]
Am Am/G D G G7 G6 G
Cloudy waters cast no reflection
Am Am/G Dm G G7 G6 G
Images of beauty lie there stagnant
Am Am/G Dm G Eb Cm7 G
Vibrations bounce in no direction
Am Ab G G7
And lie there shattered into fragments
[Chorus]
C G7
Young girls are coming to the canyon (Young girls are coming to the canyon)
F Am G7
And in the mornings I can see them walking (In the mornings I can see them walking)
C G7
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn (I can no longer keep my blinds drawn)
F Fm C
And I can't keep myself from talking
C G7
Young girls are coming to the canyon
F Am G7
And in the mornings I can see them walking
