Load the car [D] and write the note.
Grab your [G] bag and [D] grab your coat.
Tell the ones that need to know
we are [G] headed north.
[D] One foot in, one foot back.
But it don't pay to live like that.
So I cut the [G] ties and I jumped [D] the tracks
for [A] never to [G] return.
[D] Oh Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in.
Are you aware the shape I'm in?
My hands they shake, my head it spins.
Oh Brooklyn, Brooklyn, [G] take me [D] in.
When at [G] first I [D] learned to speak,
I used [G] all my [D] words to fight
with him and her and you and me.
Ah, but it's just a [G] waste of time.
[Bm] Yeah, it's such a [G] waste of time.
[D] That woman, she's got eyes that [D] shine
like a pair of stolen polished dimes.

[D] Three words that became hard to say,
[Bm] I [A] and [G] love and you.

Look at the things [G] I do.
[D] Oh Brooklyn, [G] Brooklyn, take me in.
Are you aware the shape [D] I'm in?
My hands they [G] shake, my [D] head it spins.
Oh Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in.
Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in.
Are you aware the shape I'm in?
My hands they [G] shake, my head [D] it spins.
Oh Brooklyn, [G] Brooklyn, [D] take me in.
Dumbed down and numbed by time and age.
Your dreams they catch the world in the cage.
The highway sets the traveler's stage.
All exits [G] look the same.
Three words that became [D] hard to say,
[Bm] I and [G] love and you.
[Bm] I [A] and love [G] and you.
