[Intro]
N.C.
Okay, alright, just let me think
C
Alright, just let me think
Just let me think
[Verse 1]
C
My heart is a troubled captain in poisoned television waters
F
I have this air-conditioned nightmare
Like that book you gave to me last summer
Bb F
That made me think that everything was so much worse than it really was
C
My heart is a troubled captain
But let's not get caught up on the weather
F
I could keep searching for the meaning
Try to keep this all together
Bb
But you've got green eyes like the forest
F
I got lost in on the way to some other life
[Chorus]
C
Brooklyn, Brooklyn, my dear
Bb F
Brooklyn, my dear, you're killing me
C
Brooklyn, Brooklyn, my dear
Bb F
Brooklyn, my dear, you're killing me
[Verse 2]
N.C.
My hand is a brain dead magnet
So I keep waking up on fire
F
Beneath this low rise second city
That's turning good men into liars
Bb
And maybe I'm not all that good
F
But I was better in your west coast bed
C
My hand is a brain dead magnet
But let's not get caught up on connections
F
I could keep searching for a meaning
But I'm still looking for directions
Bb F
I was baptized in your parents' pool in southern California
Then I fled
[Chorus]
C
Brooklyn, Brooklyn, my dear
Bb F
Brooklyn, my dear, you're killing me
C
Brooklyn, Brooklyn, my dear
Bb F
Brooklyn, my dear, you're killing me
C Bb F
(La la la-la laa, la-la laa la la-la laa la la)
C Bb F
(La la la-la laa, la-la laa la la-la laa la la)

N.C
My hand is a brain dead magnet
C
So I keep waking up on fire

Beneath this low rise second city
That's turning good men into liars

Brooklyn, my dear, you're killing me
