Verse:1
F# A#m D#m F#
'Oh I come from Pittsburgh to study astrology,'
B C#7 F#
She said as she stood on my instep,
A#m D#m A#m
'I could show you New York with a walk between
D#m C#7
Fourth Street and Nine.'
F# A#m D#m F#
Then out of her coat taking seven harmonicas
B C#7 F#
She sat down to play on a doorstep saying
A#m D#m A#m D#m
'Come back to my place I will show you the stars
C# G#m C#7
and the signs'.
Pre chorus:1
D#m F#
So I followed her into the black lands
D#m F#
Where the window frames peel and flake
B
And the old Jewish face behind the lace
B C#7
Even now trying to get to see what's cooking
B
Just John the Baptist in the park getting laid
C#7 F# C#7 F#
thinking there's no-one look i ng.
Chorus:1
B C#7 B C#7
And its eighty degrees and I'm down on my knees
F# D#m F# D#m
in Brooklyn.
Verse 2:
F# A#m D#m F#
Her house was a dusty collection of rusty
B C#7 F#
Confusion with landings and tunnels
A#m D#m A#m D#m
And leaning bookcases and spaces and faces and
C#7
things
F# A#m D#m
Where twenty-five Puerto Ricans, Manhattan
F#
Mohicans
B C#7 F#
And Jewish-Italian Pawnbrokers
A#m D#m A#m D#m
Lead their theatrical lives in their rooms in the
C# G#m C#7
wings
Pre chorus:2
D#m F#
While outside in the black lands
D#m F#
The violent day runs wild
B
And the black and white minstrelsrun through the crazy alleys
B C#7
While the cops go booking
B
And ruthless toothless agents sneak around and
C#7 F# C#7 F#
there's no-one look i ng
Chorus 1:
B C#7 B
And it's eighty degrees and I'm down on my
C#7 F# D#m
knees in Brooklyn.
Bridge:
D#m6 B F#maj7 D#m
And oh, I'm back in the city again.
D#m6 B
You can tell by the smell of the hamburger stand
F#7sus4 C#7
in the rain....
Verse: 3
F# A#m D#m F#
She spoke of astrology while muttering apologies
B C#7 F#
For coffee that tasted of hot dogs
A#m D#m A#m D#m
I said 'That's OK, mine was cold anyway, and
C#7
just grand'
F# A#m D#m F#
Then she lay on the bed while the radio fed us with
B C#7 F#
Records and adverts for cat food
A#m D#m A#m
And I looked at her, holding my thoughts in the
D#m C# G#m C#7
palm of my hand
Pre chorus:3
D#m F#
And outside in the black lands
D#m F#
The evening came and went
B
And the bums in the street begging money for one
last drink
B
Are hanging round the liquor stores trying to get
C#7
a foot in
B
And the girl from Pittsburgh and I made love on a
B C#7 F# C#7 F#
mattress with the new moon look i ng.
Chorus:2
B C#7 B
And in the cool evening breeze I was down on my
C#7 F# D#m B F#
knees in Brooklyn.....
