Brooklyn Roads chords by Neil Diamond

Chords with lyrics

This was Neil's first record on UNI. Although it's considered one of his
classics,
the record didn't even manage to crack the top 40. I don't think we were
quite ready for this side of Neil Diamond just yet.

                  "Brooklyn Roads"
