This tab isn't of the entire song. Specifically I left out the "They love me at the
they adore me at the Ritz" because it's somewhat un-melodic and I couldn't really figure it out.
 
I wrote these tabs with timing in mind. I put the chords over the word it should be played on.
In some cases it's over the part of the word it should be played. example; F starts on
'lancey' in 'Delancey'.
 
 
Here are the chords I use:
 
G   3-5-5-4-3-3-
F   1-3-3-2-1-1-
Eb  x-6-8-8-8-6-
Bb  6-8-8-7-6-6-
D   x-5-7-7-7-5-
Eb7 x-6-8-6-8-6-
Em  0-2-2-0-0-0-
D*  x-0-0-2-3-2-
C   x-3-2-0-1-0-
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
G                  F         G        F
   One minute I'm in Central Park
G                 F          G        F
   Then I'm down on Delancey Street
G                F       G        F
   From the Bow'ry to St Marks
G                F      G        F
   There's a syncopated Beat
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo

I'm streetwise,  I can improvise

   Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo

    Em            D*
The rhythm of the city

You can wear the crown
