Cheering For Me Now chords by John Kander & Lin-Manuel Miranda
[Intro]
Gmaj7
So they're cheering for me now
Gmaj7/B
In the streets, hear them cheering for me now
Cmaj7 Bm
Right up Broadway, they're cheering for me now
D7
And one day, all the enemies I've made might hold their own parade
Cmaj7
But not today
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7
I came here with nothing
Cmaj7
Like hundreds before me
Dm7/C
And millions behind me
Cmaj7
You know you can find me in New York
Cmaj7
Where everyone's different
Cmaj7
But share the same island
Dm7/C
Polluted and loud
Dm7/C
But you're safe in the crowd
B
Here in New York
[Bridge]
E
Today it's my city
Bmaj7
Tomorrow, who knows?
E
Today we're a country
E/F# G/F
Let's see how that goes
[Verse 2]
Db
Upstate doesn't trust us
Db
They're safe in their sameness
Ebm7
They're scared of what's strange
Ebm7 Ab
But each corner means change
Bb
Here in New York
Ebmaj7
Where else can you wander
Bb
And hear every language
Ebmaj7
We fight like a marriage
Bbmaj7
Then share the same carriage
Cm7
We suffer the weather
Cm7
We bind and we tether
Cm7/F F/A
This nation together
[Verse 3]
Dmaj7
I'm just getting started
Dmaj7
And time's of the essence
Em7
I can't say I've made it
N.C.
But I'd never trade it
A7
They've thrown a parade
Ha!
D
In my New York
[Outro]
Cheering for me now
D7#5 D
Can you hear them cheering for me now?
