Verse:1

'Oh I come from Pittsburgh to study astrology,'
F G7 C
She said as she stood on my instep,
Em Am Em
'I could show you New York with a walk between

Fourth Street and Nine.'
C Em Am C
Then out of her coat taking seven harmonicas
F G7 C
She sat down to play on a doorstep saying
Em Am Em Am
'Come back to my place I will show you the stars
G Dm G7
and the signs'.
Pre chorus:1
Am C
So I followed her into the black lands
Am C
Where the window frames peel and flake
F
And the old Jewish face behind the lace
F G7
Even now trying to get to see what's cooking
F
Just John the Baptist in the park getting laid
G7 C G7 C
thinking there's no-one look i ng.
Chorus:1
F G7 F G7
And its eighty degrees and I'm down on my knees
C Am C Am
in Brooklyn.
Verse 2:
C Em Am C
Her house was a dusty collection of rusty
F G7 C
Confusion with landings and tunnels
Em Am Em Am
And leaning bookcases and spaces and faces and
G7
things
C Em Am
Where twenty-five Puerto Ricans, Manhattan
C
Mohicans
F G7 C
And Jewish-Italian Pawnbrokers
Em Am Em Am
Lead their theatrical lives in their rooms in the
G Dm G7
wings
Pre chorus:2
Am C
While outside in the black lands
Am C
The violent day runs wild
F
And the black and white minstrelsrun through the crazy alleys
F G7
While the cops go booking
F
And ruthless toothless agents sneak around and
G7 C G7 C
there's no-one look i ng
Chorus 1:
F G7 F
And it's eighty degrees and I'm down on my
G7 C Am
knees in Brooklyn.
Bridge:
Am6 F Cmaj7 Am
And oh, I'm back in the city again.

You can tell by the smell of the hamburger stand
F#7sus4 G7
in the rain....
Verse: 3
C Em Am C
She spoke of astrology while muttering apologies
F G7 C
For coffee that tasted of hot dogs
Em Am Em Am
I said 'That's OK, mine was cold anyway, and
G7
just grand'
C Em Am C
Then she lay on the bed while the radio fed us with
F G7 C
Records and adverts for cat food
Em Am Em
And I looked at her, holding my thoughts in the
Am G Dm G7
palm of my hand
Pre chorus:3
Am C
And outside in the black lands
Am C
The evening came and went
F
And the bums in the street begging money for one
last drink
F
Are hanging round the liquor stores trying to get
G7
a foot in
F
And the girl from Pittsburgh and I made love on a
F G7 C G7 C
mattress with the new moon look i ng.
Chorus:2
F G7 F
And in the cool evening breeze I was down on my
G7 C Am F C
knees in Brooklyn.....
