The Avett Brothers is an American folk-rock band that originated in Concord, North Carolina. Two brothers, Seth Avett and Scott Avett, formed the group in 2000 after the breakup of the former rock band, Nemo, adding a third member, Bob Crawford. Subsequently, they have been joined by cellist Joe Kwon. The Avett Brothers combine old-time country, bluegrass, punk, pop melodies, folk, rock and roll, honky tonk and ragtime to produce a sound described by the Washington Post as "post civil-war modern rock", or by other reviewers as "grungegrass".

DGD Load the car and write the note
DGD Grab your bag and grab your coat
DGD Tell the ones that need to know
BmAG We are headed north
DGD One foot in and one foot back
DGD But it don't play to live like that
DGD So I cut the ties and I jumped the tracks
BmAG For never to return
DGD Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
DGD Are you aware the shape Im in?
DGD My hands they shake my head it spins
DGD Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
DGD When at first i learned to speak
DGD I used all my words to fight
DGD With him and her and you and me
BmAG Aw but its just a waste of time
BmAG Yea its such a waste of time
DGD That women she's got eyes that shine
DGD Like a pair of stolen polished dimes
D- GD She asked to dance I said it's fine - aw it's fine -
BmGD I'll see you in the morning time
DGD Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
DGD Are you aware the shape Im in?
DGD My hands they shake my head it spins
DGD Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in

BmAG I and love and you
DGD What you are then I am today
BmAG Look at the things I do
DGD Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
DGD Are you aware the shape Im in?
DGD My hands they shake my head it spins
DGD Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
DGD Dumb down and numbed by time and age
DGD Your dreams they catch the world the cage
DGD The highway sets the travelers stage
BmAG All exits look the same
DGD Three words that became hard to say
BmAG I and love and you
BmAG I and love and you
BmAG I and love and you
