Bmaj7                          Emaj7
Buying some vintage records in Williamsberg stores
Bmaj7                             Emaj7
Playing paper boats on east river shores
Bmaj7                                  Emaj7
Meeting mermaids and lobsters in Coney Island
Bmaj7                          Emaj7
Puking our deep fried Oreos in Astroland

D#7                                 C#m
Spending our days watching skylines from rooftops
D#7                            C#m
On Independence Day, Manhattan fireworks

Chorus:
F#m                                C#m
Life is easier where the walls are red
F#m                          C#m
Brooklyn is a place stuck in my head
F#m     B7                 Emaj7
Here in Paris, the rain is falling
G#m7-5              C#7
My heart belongs to Brooklyn

I'm sick of four star food,
I want to be where life is
As simple as two bucks pizza slices
I swear I'll tell you, next time
I knock at your door
That I am not leaving Brooklyn anymore

Would it be that nice if you were not part of it?
Would Brooklyn be worth crossing the Atlantic

Chorus:
Life is easier where we can join our hands
Your face is a face that's stuck in my head
Here in Paris, rain is falling
My heart belongs to Brooklyn

Life is easier where we can join our hands
Your face is a face that's stuck in my head
Here in Paris, rain is falling
My heart belongs to Brooklyn
