Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
New  York City! (uh huh.)  Centre of the universe. (sing it, girl)
Times  are shitty, but I'm  pretty sure they can't get worse. (I hear ya.)
It's  a comfort to know, when you're  singing the "Hit the Road Blues"
   N/
 That anywhere else you could possibly go after New York would be:
 N/
 A Pleasure cruise.
Now  you're Talkin'. (collins's  trademark evil laugh, lol muahaha)
 Well I'm thwarted  by a metaphysic  puzzle
 And I'm sick  of gradin' papers, that I  know.
 I'm shouting  in my sleep I need a  muzzle
 And all  this misery pays no salary  so
Let's  Open up a restaurant  in Santa  Fe
   Sunny Santa Fe Would  be Nice
  Let's  Open up a Restaurant  in Santa Fe
 And  leave this to the roaches and  mice.
  Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
  Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
You  teach? Yeah, I teach  Computer age philosophy
 When my students  would rather watch T.V.?  America. (America)
 You're a sensitive  aesthete, Brush the sauce  onto the meat
 You can make  the menu sparkle with a rhyme
 You can drum  a gentle drum, I can seat  guests as they come
 Chatting not  about Heidegger but wine.
 Let's  open up a restaurant  in Santa Fe
  Our  labours would reap financial  gain
  We'll  open up a restaurant  in Santa Fe
And  save from devastation  our brains  (save our brains)
 We'll  pack up all our junk and  fly so far away
Devote  ourselves to projects  that sell
We'll  open up a restaurant  in Santa  Fe
Forget  this cold  bohemian hell
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh  (whoa oh oh oh whoa oh oh)
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
 yeah  yeah yeah mmhmm *strange  nasal sounds*
  Do  you know the way  To Santa Fe?
   You know; tumbleweeds...  prairie dawwwwwgs.
  Yeaaah.
