Not for the Life of Me / NYC / Astonishing Lyrics & Tabs by Sutton Foster
Not for the Life of Me / NYC / Astonishing
guitar chords lyrics
I studied all the pictures in magazines and books
I memorized the subway map too
It's one block north to Macy's and two to Brothers Brooks
Manhattan, I prepared for you
You certainly are different from what they have back home
Where nothing's over three stories high
And no one's in a hurry or wants to roam
But I do, though they wonder why...
NYC
Just got here this morning
Three bucks
Two bags
One me
NYC
I give you fair warning
One me
NYC
I give you fair warning
Up there
In lights
I'll be
Go ask the Gershwins or Kaufman and Hart
The place they love the best
Though California pays big for their art
Their fan mail's still addressed to NYC
Tomorrow a penthouse
That's way up high
Tonight
The "Y"
Why not?
It's NYC
Too hot
Too cold
Too late
I'm sold
Why not...
Here I go
And there's no turning back
My great adventure has begun
I may be small
But I've got giant plans
To shine as brightly as the sun
I will blaze until I find my time and place
I will be fearless, surrendering modesty and grace
I will not disappear without a trace
I'll shout and start a riot
Be anything but quiet
Christopher Columbus, I'll be astonishing
Astonishing
Astonishing
At last
