New Amsterdam
Elvis Costello


       
G
          
Em
         
C
         
G

You're sending me tulips, mistaken for lilies,
    
G
            
Em
        
F
           
D

You give me your lip after punching me silly,
G
             
Em
           
C
               
G

You turned my head till it rolled down the brain drain,
     
G
       
Em
           
F
                
D

If I had any sense now, I wouldn't want it back again.


G
         
Bb
          
Am
            
G

New Amsterdam, it's become much too much,
       
G
            
Bb
        
Am
             
G

Will I have the possession of everything she touches,
       
G
           
Bb
           
Am
         
G

Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches?
      
G
            
Bb
        
Am
           
G

Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess?


G
           
Em
          
C
             
G

Down on the mainspring, listen to the tick tock,
G
             
Em
         
F
          
D

Clock all the faces that move in on your block,
G
             
Em
          
C
                 
G

Twice shy and dog tired because you've been bitten,
G
              
Em
      
F
                  
D

Everything you say now sounds like it was ghost written.


G
         
Bb
          
Am
            
G

New Amsterdam, it's become much too much,
       
G
            
Bb
        
Am
             
G

Will I have the possession of everything she touches,

Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches?

Like, in London, they'll take you to heart after a little while,
         
E

Though I look right at home, I still feel like an exile.


G
         
Em
           
C
           
G

Somehow I found myself down at the dockside,
G
                  
Em
          
F
             
D

Thinking about the old days of Liverpool and Rotherhithe,
G
           
Em
         
C
           
G

Transparent people who live on the other side,
G
        
Em
           
F
           
D

Living a life that is almost like suicide,


G
         
Bb
          
Am
            
G

New Amsterdam, it's become much too much,
       
G
            
Bb
        
Am
             
G

Will I have the possession of everything she touches,
       
G
           
Bb
           
Am
         
G

Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches?
      
G
            
Bb
         
Am
          
G

Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess?
