Verse:1
A# Dm Gm A#
'Oh I come from Pittsburgh to study astrology,'
D# F7 A#
She said as she stood on my instep,
Dm Gm Dm
'I could show you New York with a walk between
Gm F7
Fourth Street and Nine.'
A# Dm Gm A#
Then out of her coat taking seven harmonicas
D# F7 A#
She sat down to play on a doorstep saying
Dm Gm Dm Gm
'Come back to my place I will show you the stars
F Cm F7
and the signs'.
Pre chorus:1
Gm A#
So I followed her into the black lands
Gm A#
Where the window frames peel and flake
D#
And the old Jewish face behind the lace
D# F7
Even now trying to get to see what's cooking
D#
Just John the Baptist in the park getting laid
F7 A# F7 A#
thinking there's no-one look i ng.
Chorus:1
D# F7 D# F7
And its eighty degrees and I'm down on my knees
A# Gm A# Gm
in Brooklyn.
Verse 2:
A# Dm Gm A#
Her house was a dusty collection of rusty
D# F7 A#
Confusion with landings and tunnels
Dm Gm Dm Gm
And leaning bookcases and spaces and faces and
F7
things
A# Dm Gm
Where twenty-five Puerto Ricans, Manhattan
A#
Mohicans
D# F7 A#
And Jewish-Italian Pawnbrokers
Dm Gm Dm Gm
Lead their theatrical lives in their rooms in the
F Cm F7
wings
Pre chorus:2
Gm A#
While outside in the black lands
Gm A#
The violent day runs wild
D#
And the black and white minstrelsrun through the crazy alleys
D# F7
While the cops go booking
D#
And ruthless toothless agents sneak around and
F7 A# F7 A#
there's no-one look i ng
Chorus 1:
D# F7 D#
And it's eighty degrees and I'm down on my
F7 A# Gm
knees in Brooklyn.
Bridge:
Gm6 D# A#maj7 Gm
And oh, I'm back in the city again.
Gm6 D#
You can tell by the smell of the hamburger stand
F#7sus4 F7
in the rain....
Verse: 3
A# Dm Gm A#
She spoke of astrology while muttering apologies
D# F7 A#
For coffee that tasted of hot dogs
Dm Gm Dm Gm
I said 'That's OK, mine was cold anyway, and
F7
just grand'
A# Dm Gm A#
Then she lay on the bed while the radio fed us with
D# F7 A#
Records and adverts for cat food
Dm Gm Dm
And I looked at her, holding my thoughts in the
Gm F Cm F7
palm of my hand
Pre chorus:3
Gm A#
And outside in the black lands
Gm A#
The evening came and went
D#
And the bums in the street begging money for one
last drink
D#
Are hanging round the liquor stores trying to get
F7
a foot in
D#
And the girl from Pittsburgh and I made love on a
D# F7 A# F7 A#
mattress with the new moon look i ng.
Chorus:2
D# F7 D#
And in the cool evening breeze I was down on my
F7 A# Gm D# A#
knees in Brooklyn.....
