Verse:1
E G#m C#m E
'Oh I come from Pittsburgh to study astrology,'
A B7 E
She said as she stood on my instep,
G#m C#m G#m
'I could show you New York with a walk between
C#m B7
Fourth Street and Nine.'
E G#m C#m E
Then out of her coat taking seven harmonicas
A B7 E
She sat down to play on a doorstep saying
G#m C#m G#m C#m
'Come back to my place I will show you the stars
B F#m B7
and the signs'.
Pre chorus:1
C#m E
So I followed her into the black lands
C#m E
Where the window frames peel and flake
A
And the old Jewish face behind the lace
A B7
Even now trying to get to see what's cooking
A
Just John the Baptist in the park getting laid
B7 E B7 E
thinking there's no-one look i ng.
Chorus:1
A B7 A B7
And its eighty degrees and I'm down on my knees
E C#m E C#m
in Brooklyn.
Verse 2:
E G#m C#m E
Her house was a dusty collection of rusty
A B7 E
Confusion with landings and tunnels
G#m C#m G#m C#m
And leaning bookcases and spaces and faces and
B7
things
E G#m C#m
Where twenty-five Puerto Ricans, Manhattan
E
Mohicans
A B7 E
And Jewish-Italian Pawnbrokers
G#m C#m G#m C#m
Lead their theatrical lives in their rooms in the
B F#m B7
wings
Pre chorus:2
C#m E
While outside in the black lands
C#m E
The violent day runs wild
A
And the black and white minstrelsrun through the crazy alleys
A B7
While the cops go booking
A
And ruthless toothless agents sneak around and
B7 E B7 E
there's no-one look i ng
Chorus 1:
A B7 A
And it's eighty degrees and I'm down on my
B7 E C#m
knees in Brooklyn.
Bridge:
C#m6 A Emaj7 C#m
And oh, I'm back in the city again.
C#m6 A
You can tell by the smell of the hamburger stand
F#7sus4 B7
in the rain....
Verse: 3
E G#m C#m E
She spoke of astrology while muttering apologies
A B7 E
For coffee that tasted of hot dogs
G#m C#m G#m C#m
I said 'That's OK, mine was cold anyway, and
B7
just grand'
E G#m C#m E
Then she lay on the bed while the radio fed us with
A B7 E
Records and adverts for cat food
G#m C#m G#m
And I looked at her, holding my thoughts in the
C#m B F#m B7
palm of my hand
Pre chorus:3
C#m E
And outside in the black lands
C#m E
The evening came and went
A
And the bums in the street begging money for one
last drink
A
Are hanging round the liquor stores trying to get
B7
a foot in
A
And the girl from Pittsburgh and I made love on a
A B7 E B7 E
mattress with the new moon look i ng.
Chorus:2
A B7 A
And in the cool evening breeze I was down on my
B7 E C#m A E
knees in Brooklyn.....
