Alicia Keys - Empire State of Mind Part 2 (Broken Down)

Tabbed by E. Jay Apaga

 

If you can hit the notes in the original notes here it is for you

If you can't, ALTERNATE CHORDINGS ARE AT THE BOTTOM!!!

 

Original Key Capo 2

 

 

 

E Amaj7

Ooohh New York x2

E Amaj7

Grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes

E Amaj7

Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean

E Amaj7

If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say

E Amaj7

Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway

 

 

G#

Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams

Amaj7

Baby, I'm from New York

E

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

B

There's nothing you can't do

Amaj7

Now you're in New York

E

These streets will make you feel brand new

B

Big lights will inspire you

Amaj7

Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!

 

 

E Amaj7

On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew, ladies work so hard

E Amaj7

Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God

E Amaj7

Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge

E Amaj7

Some will sleep tonight with a hunger for more than an empty fridge

 

 

G#

I'm gonna make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams

Amaj7

Baby, I'm from New York

E

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

B

There's nothing you can't do

Amaj7

Now you're in New York

E

These streets will make you feel brand new

B

Big lights will inspire you

Amaj7

Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!

 

 

Amaj7

One hand in the air for the big city,

Amaj7

Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty

B

No place in the world that can compare

C# G#

Put your lighters in the air, everybody say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

 

In New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

There's nothing you can't do

Now you're in New York

These streets will make you feel brand new

Big lights will inspire you

Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!

 

------------------

ALTERNATE CHORDING

------------------

If you're a dude like me and you dig Ms. Keys but can't hit the notes well enough

in the orginal key try the following and move the capo up and down the neck until

you hit a range that you think you can handle.

 

For this example we'll play it down so even the high parts rest comfortably within a male range.

 

Alternate Key Capo 2

 

G Cmaj7
