[E]I have never been the type to try and grab the spotlight
[A]We were at a revel with some rebels on a hot night
[E]Laughing at my sister as she’s dazzling the room
Then [A]you walked in and my heart went “Boom!”
[E]Trying to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom
[A]Everybody’s dancing and the band’s top volume
[E]Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine
Grab my [A]sister and whisper “Yo, this one’s mine.”
[C#m]Ooh, my sister made her way across the room to [A]you

(Eliza)
Ha!
[E]Two weeks later in the living room stressin’
My [A]father’s stone faced while you’re asking for his blessin’
I’m [E]dying inside as you wine and dine
And I’m [A]trying not to cry cause there’s nothing that your mind can’t
[C#m]do
My father makes his way across the room to [A]you
I panic for a second thinking “we’re [C#m]through”
But then he shakes your hand and says “Be [B]true”
And you turn back to me, smiling, and I’m

(Hamilton)
[E]Eliza, I don’t have a dollar to my name
An [A]acre of land, a troop to command, a dollop of fame
[E]All I have’s my honor, a tolerance for pain
A [A]couple of college credits and my top-notch brain
[E]Insane, your family brings out a different side of me
[A]Peggy confides in me, Angelica tried to take a bite of me
[E]No stress, my love for you is never in doubt
We’ll get a [A]little place in Harlem and we’ll figure it out
I’ve been [C#m]livin’ without a family since I was a child
My father [A]left, my mother died, I grew up buckwild
But [C#m]I’ll never forget my mother’s face, that was real
And long as I’m alive, [B]Eliza, swear to God
You’ll never feel so…
(Chorus)
[E]Helpless, [A]look into your eyes and the sky’s the limit
I’m [E]helpless, [A]down for the count and I’m drowning in ‘em
[E]Helpless, [A]look into your eyes and the sky’s the limit
I’m [E]helpless, [A]down for the count and I’m drowning in ‘em
[E] [A] [A]
In New York, you can be a new man
In [C#m]New York, you can be a new man
In [B]New York, you can be a new [A]man [E]
