and the signs'.
Pre chorus:1
Cm D#
So I followed her into the black lands
Cm D#
Where the window frames peel and flake
G#
And the old Jewish face behind the lace
G# A#7
Even now trying to get to see what's cooking
G#
Just John the Baptist in the park getting laid
A#7 D# A#7 D#
thinking there's no-one look i ng.

Her house was a dusty collection of rusty

And leaning bookcases and spaces and faces and

things
D# Gm Cm
Where twenty-five Puerto Ricans, Manhattan
D#
Mohicans
G# A#7 D#
And Jewish-Italian Pawnbrokers
Gm Cm Gm Cm
Lead their theatrical lives in their rooms in the
A# Fm A#7
wings
Pre chorus:2
Cm D#
While outside in the black lands
Cm D#
The violent day runs wild
G#
And the black and white minstrelsrun through the crazy alleys
G# A#7
While the cops go booking
G#
And ruthless toothless agents sneak around and
A#7 D# A#7 D#
there's no-one look i ng

And it's eighty degrees and I'm down on my

G# A#7 D#
For coffee that tasted of hot dogs

Then she lay on the bed while the radio fed us with

palm of my hand
Pre chorus:3
Cm D#
And outside in the black lands
Cm D#
The evening came and went
G#
And the bums in the street begging money for one
last drink

Are hanging round the liquor stores trying to get

a foot in

And the girl from Pittsburgh and I made love on a
G# A#7 D# A#7 D#
mattress with the new moon look i ng.
Chorus:2
G# A#7 G#
And in the cool evening breeze I was down on my
A#7 D# Cm G# D#
knees in Brooklyn.....
