Kunci Gitar Neil Diamond - Brooklyn Roads

INTRO: A

A
If I close my eyes, I can almost hear my mother,
                                     D
callin', Neil, go find your brother, Daddy's home,
         G                      D
and it's time for supper, hurry on.
A
And I see two boys racin' up two flights of staircase,
                        D
squirmin' into Papa's embrace and his whiskers warm
G                         D                    A
on their face, where's it gone? Oh, where's it gone?

CHORUS:
D                    G        C                 F
Two floors above the butcher, first door on the right.
F
And life filled to the brim as I stood by my window
                  C               D
and looked out on those, Brooklyn Roads.

A
I can still recall the smells of cookin' in the hallways.
                               D                G
Rubbers drying in the doorways and report cards I was
        D
always afraid to show.
A
Mama'd come to school and as I sit there softly crying,
                                     D
teacher'd say, he's just not trying, got a good head
   G
if he'd apply it.
        D                          A
But you know yourself, it's always somewhere else.

CHORUS:
  D          Gm     C                F
I built me a castle with dragons and kings and I'd ride

off with them as I stood by my window and looked out
   C              D
on those Brooklyn roads.

INTERLUDE: G D G C F Bb C D

A
Thought of going back but all I'd see are stranger's

faces and all the scars that love erases.
D                    G                        D
But as my mind walks through those places I'm wonderin',
       A
what's come of them?

OUTRO:
D                     Gm  C               F
Does some other young boy come home to my room?

Does he dream what I did as he stands by my window and
             C     Bm     Em  D      G        D     G D
looks out on those Brook..lyn roads..Brooklyn roads.
