Verse:1
B D#m G#m B
'Oh I come from Pittsburgh to study astrology,'
E F#7 B
She said as she stood on my instep,
D#m G#m D#m
'I could show you New York with a walk between
G#m F#7
Fourth Street and Nine.'
B D#m G#m B
Then out of her coat taking seven harmonicas
E F#7 B
She sat down to play on a doorstep saying
D#m G#m D#m G#m
'Come back to my place I will show you the stars
F# C#m F#7
and the signs'.
Pre chorus:1
G#m B
So I followed her into the black lands
G#m B
Where the window frames peel and flake
E
And the old Jewish face behind the lace
E F#7
Even now trying to get to see what's cooking
E
Just John the Baptist in the park getting laid
F#7 B F#7 B
thinking there's no-one look i ng.
Chorus:1
E F#7 E F#7
And its eighty degrees and I'm down on my knees
B G#m B G#m
in Brooklyn.
Verse 2:
B D#m G#m B
Her house was a dusty collection of rusty
E F#7 B
Confusion with landings and tunnels
D#m G#m D#m G#m
And leaning bookcases and spaces and faces and
F#7
things
B D#m G#m
Where twenty-five Puerto Ricans, Manhattan
B
Mohicans
E F#7 B
And Jewish-Italian Pawnbrokers
D#m G#m D#m G#m
Lead their theatrical lives in their rooms in the
F# C#m F#7
wings
Pre chorus:2
G#m B
While outside in the black lands
G#m B
The violent day runs wild
E
And the black and white minstrelsrun through the crazy alleys
E F#7
While the cops go booking
E
And ruthless toothless agents sneak around and
F#7 B F#7 B
there's no-one look i ng
Chorus 1:
E F#7 E
And it's eighty degrees and I'm down on my
F#7 B G#m
knees in Brooklyn.
Bridge:
G#m6 E Bmaj7 G#m
And oh, I'm back in the city again.
G#m6 E
You can tell by the smell of the hamburger stand
F#7sus4 F#7
in the rain....
Verse: 3
B D#m G#m B
She spoke of astrology while muttering apologies
E F#7 B
For coffee that tasted of hot dogs
D#m G#m D#m G#m
I said 'That's OK, mine was cold anyway, and
F#7
just grand'
B D#m G#m B
Then she lay on the bed while the radio fed us with
E F#7 B
Records and adverts for cat food
D#m G#m D#m
And I looked at her, holding my thoughts in the
G#m F# C#m F#7
palm of my hand
Pre chorus:3
G#m B
And outside in the black lands
G#m B
The evening came and went
E
And the bums in the street begging money for one
last drink
E
Are hanging round the liquor stores trying to get
F#7
a foot in
E
And the girl from Pittsburgh and I made love on a
E F#7 B F#7 B
mattress with the new moon look i ng.
Chorus:2
E F#7 E
And in the cool evening breeze I was down on my
F#7 B G#m E B
knees in Brooklyn.....
