Riding To New York Ukulele by Passenger
THIS IS JUST MY INTERPRETATION OF THE SONG
- PLEASE DONT VOTE DOWN BECAUSE IT DOESNT SOUND EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE ORIGINAL
For it to sound closer to the original play with capo 5.
Am C G F
Well, I met him in Minnesota. He was dark and overcast,
Am C
with long grey hair and eyes that stared
G
through me like I was glass.
F Am
I asked, "Where are you going to?"
G F
He said, "I'm the wind, I'm just blowin' through".
Am C G
Then he lit up a cigarette and began to talk:
Am C
"See the doctors told me that my body won't hold me,
G F
my lungs are turning black.
Am C
Been Lucky Strike's fool since I was at school,
G
now there ain't no turning back.
F Am G F
They can't tell me how long I've got, maybe months, but maybe not.
Am C G
So I'm taking this bike and riding to New York.
Dm Am G
'Cause I wanna see my grand-daughter one last time
Dm Am
Want to hold her close and feel her tiny
C G
Heartbeat next to mine
Dm Am
Wanna see my son and the man he's become
C G
Tell him I'm sorry for the things I've done
F Am G
And I'd do it if I had to walk
F G Am
Oh, I'm taking this bike and riding to New York
Am C G F
Through the forests of Wisconsin, that I knew as a boy
Am C G
Past the skyline of Chicago, 'round the lakes of Illinois
F Am
I lay my head in a motel bed
G F
When my back get sore and my eyes turn red
Am C G
And listen to the trucks roll past my door
Am C G Am
Through the fields of Ohio as the sunshine paints them gold
Am C G
I'll run just like a river runs, rapid, quick and cold
F Am G F
Fly through Pennsylvania and the Jersey turn-pike tolls
Am C G
I won't stop 'til I get to New York
Dm Am G
'Cause I wanna see my grand-son one last time
Dm Am C G
Wanna see his eyes sparkling and stare back into mine
Dm Am
Now my time is short, I wanna see my daughter
C G
Tell her I'm sorry for the things I taught her
F Am G
And I'd do it if I had to walk
F G Am
Oh, I'm taking this bike and I'm riding to New York
Dm Am G
And I'd go up to the churchyard one last time
Dm Am
Lay flowers down for the woman who gave me
C G
The best years of my life
F Am G
And I'd do it if I had to walk
F Am G
Yeah, I'd do it if I had to walk
F G Am
I'm taking this bike and riding to New York
