Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: Bb

Difficulty: Intermediate

Intro:
Bbmaj7
Remember we sat in the cold, no money in my Trio
Gm7
Underneath that waterfall nobody else ever saw
Fmaj7
I packed up everything except those memories
That only I can see, and can't get rid of

Verse 1:
Bbmaj7                                               Bbmaj7   F
I still remember the first, your body hit every nerve
Gm7
Used to wake up in my shirt, that's the one I had to burn
Fmaj7
Trying not to stare, but you are everywhere
                       Fmaj7 Gm7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7
You're everywhere that I     ev--er     known


Chorus:
Bbmaj7                             Bbmaj7   F
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Gm7
Been hiding, had to wait for so long
Fmaj7
And it's the subtleties, you've only ever seen
                        Fmaj7 Gm7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7
Bringing the mess of me back   to--ge-----ther
Bbmaj7                             Bbmaj7   F
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Gm7
Been stumbling, half awake for so long
Fmaj7
Gotta forget that feeling, give into something real
               Fmaj7 Gm7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7  Bmaj7
I've got, I've got---ta  let    you    go
              Gm7
Gotta let you go


Verse 2:
     Bbmaj7                                                    Bbmaj7   F
This morning I walked to the train, just like you did every day
Gm7
Everyone else is the same, I wonder if you're the same
    Fmaj7
And do you lay your head in someone else's bed
                          N.C.
To help you bury it? Just like you always did
    Bbmaj7                                                 Bbmaj7   F
And now you're in all of my words, only way I can return
    Gm7
Memories fade in reverse, but you will always be heard
    Fmaj7
Wherever I can sing, you'll be right there with me
                            Fmaj7 Gm7  Bbmaj7 Fmaj7
The notes and melodies that only   I  can   see


Chorus:
Bbmaj7                             Bbmaj7   F
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Gm7
Been hiding, had to wait for so long
Fmaj7
And it's the subtleties, you've only ever seen
                        Fmaj7 Gm7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7
Bringing the mess of me back   to--ge-----ther
Bbmaj7                             Bbmaj7   F
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Gm7
Been stumbling, half awake for so long
Fmaj7
Gotta forget that feeling, give into something real
               Fmaj7 Gm7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7  Bmaj7
I've got, I've got---ta  let    you    go


Bridge:
 Bmaj7                       Bbmaj7   F   Gm7
But maybe I'm not really ready to give up you
                                           Fmaj7
'Cause nobody ever mattered to me like you do

'Cause you're so up here, I caught that feeling
   Fmaj7 Gm7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7  Bmaj7
And touch the ceiling,   ooh
                                      Bbmaj7   F   Gm7
I wish I could describe it with words just ain't enough
                                                Fmaj7
And nothing that I could say would ever measure up

But what I can't stand is you're outta my hands
        Fmaj7 Gm7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7 Bmaj7
And up outta your plans,     ooh


Chorus:
Bbmaj7                             Bbmaj7   F
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Gm7
Been hiding, had to wait for so long
Fmaj7
And it's the subtleties, you've only ever seen
                        Fmaj7 Gm7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7
Bringing the mess of me back   to--ge-----ther
Bbmaj7                             Bbmaj7   F
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Gm7
Been stumbling, half awake for so long
Fmaj7
Gotta forget that feeling, give into something real
               Fmaj7 Gm7 Bbmaj7 Fmaj7  Bmaj7
I've got, I've got---ta  let    you    go
