Then out of her coat taking seven harmonicas
C# D#7 G#
She sat down to play on a doorstep saying

'Come back to my place I will show you the stars

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

And its eighty degrees and I'm down on my knees

in Brooklyn.
Verse 2:
G# Cm Fm G#
Her house was a dusty collection of rusty
C# D#7 G#
Confusion with landings and tunnels
Cm Fm Cm Fm
And leaning bookcases and spaces and faces and
D#7
things
G# Cm Fm
Where twenty-five Puerto Ricans, Manhattan
G#
Mohicans
C# D#7 G#
And Jewish-Italian Pawnbrokers
Cm Fm Cm Fm
Lead their theatrical lives in their rooms in the
D# A#m D#7
wings
Pre chorus:2
Fm G#
While outside in the black lands
Fm G#
The violent day runs wild
C#
And the black and white minstrelsrun through the crazy alleys
C# D#7
While the cops go booking
C#
And ruthless toothless agents sneak around and
D#7 G# D#7 G#
there's no-one look i ng

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

She spoke of astrology while muttering apologies
C# D#7 G#
For coffee that tasted of hot dogs

I said 'That's OK, mine was cold anyway, and

just grand'
G# Cm Fm G#
Then she lay on the bed while the radio fed us with
C# D#7 G#
Records and adverts for cat food
Cm Fm Cm
And I looked at her, holding my thoughts in the
Fm D# A#m D#7
palm of my hand
Pre chorus:3
Fm G#
And outside in the black lands
Fm G#
The evening came and went
C#
And the bums in the street begging money for one
last drink
C#
Are hanging round the liquor stores trying to get
D#7
a foot in
C#
And the girl from Pittsburgh and I made love on a
C# D#7 G# D#7 G#
mattress with the new moon look i ng.
Chorus:2
C# D#7 C#
And in the cool evening breeze I was down on my
D#7 G# Fm C# G#
knees in Brooklyn.....
