Verse:1
D F#m Bm D
'Oh I come from Pittsburgh to study astrology,'
G A7 D
She said as she stood on my instep,
F#m Bm F#m
'I could show you New York with a walk between
Bm A7
Fourth Street and Nine.'
D F#m Bm D
Then out of her coat taking seven harmonicas
G A7 D
She sat down to play on a doorstep saying
F#m Bm F#m Bm
'Come back to my place I will show you the stars
A Em A7
and the signs'.
Pre chorus:1
Bm D
So I followed her into the black lands
Bm D
Where the window frames peel and flake
G
And the old Jewish face behind the lace
G A7
Even now trying to get to see what's cooking
G
Just John the Baptist in the park getting laid
A7 D A7 D
thinking there's no-one look i ng.
Chorus:1
G A7 G A7
And its eighty degrees and I'm down on my knees
D Bm D Bm
in Brooklyn.
Verse 2:
D F#m Bm D
Her house was a dusty collection of rusty
G A7 D
Confusion with landings and tunnels
F#m Bm F#m Bm
And leaning bookcases and spaces and faces and
A7
things
D F#m Bm
Where twenty-five Puerto Ricans, Manhattan
D
Mohicans
G A7 D
And Jewish-Italian Pawnbrokers
F#m Bm F#m Bm
Lead their theatrical lives in their rooms in the
A Em A7
wings
Pre chorus:2
Bm D
While outside in the black lands
Bm D
The violent day runs wild
G
And the black and white minstrelsrun through the crazy alleys
G A7
While the cops go booking
G
And ruthless toothless agents sneak around and
A7 D A7 D
there's no-one look i ng
Chorus 1:
G A7 G
And it's eighty degrees and I'm down on my
A7 D Bm
knees in Brooklyn.
Bridge:
Bm6 G Dmaj7 Bm
And oh, I'm back in the city again.
Bm6 G
You can tell by the smell of the hamburger stand
F#7sus4 A7
in the rain....
Verse: 3
D F#m Bm D
She spoke of astrology while muttering apologies
G A7 D
For coffee that tasted of hot dogs
F#m Bm F#m Bm
I said 'That's OK, mine was cold anyway, and
A7
just grand'
D F#m Bm D
Then she lay on the bed while the radio fed us with
G A7 D
Records and adverts for cat food
F#m Bm F#m
And I looked at her, holding my thoughts in the
Bm A Em A7
palm of my hand
Pre chorus:3
Bm D
And outside in the black lands
Bm D
The evening came and went
G
And the bums in the street begging money for one
last drink
G
Are hanging round the liquor stores trying to get
A7
a foot in
G
And the girl from Pittsburgh and I made love on a
G A7 D A7 D
mattress with the new moon look i ng.
Chorus:2
G A7 G
And in the cool evening breeze I was down on my
A7 D Bm G D
knees in Brooklyn.....
