this song is written for piano not guitar , so these chords are all approximate .
tune every string down a whole step ( D B C F A D ) .
chord pattern i :
load the car and write the note
E | – 0 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 0 – – – – – – – – 0 – – – |
B | – 0 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – – – 0 – – – |
G | – 9 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – – – 1 – – – |
D | – 9 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – – – 2 – – – |
A | – 7 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 0 – – – – – – – – 2 – – – |
E | – 0 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – x – – – – – – – – 0 – – – |
repeat chord pattern i through first three lines of every verse :
grab your bag and grab your coat
E | – 0 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 0 – – – – – – – – 0 – – – |
B | – 0 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – – – 0 – – – |
G | – 9 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – – – 1 – – – |
D | – 9 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – – – 2 – – – |
A | – 7 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 0 – – – – – – – – 2 – – – |
E | – 0 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – x – – – – – – – – 0 – – – |
tell the ones that need to know
E | – 0 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 0 – – – – – – – – 0 – – – |
B | – 0 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – – – 0 – – – |
G | – 9 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – – – 1 – – – |
D | – 9 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – – – 2 – – – |
A | – 7 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 0 – – – – – – – – 2 – – – |
E | – 0 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – x – – – – – – – – 0 – – – |
chord pattern ii :
we are headed north
E | – 4 – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – 0 – – – – – – |
B | – 5 – – – – – – 4 – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – |
G | – 6 – – – – – – 4 – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – |
D | – 6 – – – – – – 4 – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – |
A | – 4 – – – – – – 2 – – – – – – 0 – – – – – – |
E | – x – – – – – – x – – – – – – x – – – – – – |
the whole song goes this way ,
with the small exception that no matter where it appears in the verse ,
“i and love and you” is always accompanied by chord pattern ii .
you can alternate using the high E chord ( 079900 ) and the standard E ( 022100 )
to start off chord pattern i .
i like using only standard E ( 022100 ) in the “brooklyn” verses .
