Aloe Blacc - Brooklyn In The Summer Chords

[intro]
Bb
Remember we sat in the cold, no money in my Trio

Underneath that waterfall nobody else ever saw
   Dm
I packed up everything except those memories

That only I can see, and can't get rid of

[verse 1]
Bb
I still remember the first,
                            F
your body hit every nerve
Bb
Used to wake up in my shirt,
                             F
that's the one I had to burn
Dm                                           F
Trying not to stare, but you are everywhere
Dm                     F Gm Am  Gm
 You're everywhere that I ev er known

[chorus]
Bb                                F
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Bb                               F
 Been hiding, had to wait for so long
Dm                                    F
 And it's the subtleties, you've only ever seen
Dm                       F    Gm Am  Gm
 Bringing the mess of me back  to ge ther
Bb                                F
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Bb                                 F
 Been stumbling, half awake for so long
Dm
 Gotta forget that feeling,
            F        Dm
give into something real
           F     Gm   Am  Gm  Bb
I've got, I've gotta let you  go
              Dm
Gotta let you go

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

[chorus]
Bb                                F
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Bb                               F
 Been hiding, had to wait for so long
Dm                                    F
 And it's the subtleties, you've only ever seen
Dm                       F    Gm Am  Gm
 Bringing the mess of me back  to ge ther
Bb                                F
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Bb                                 F
 Been stumbling, half awake for so long
Dm
 Gotta forget that feeling,
            F        Dm
give into something real
           F     Gm   Am  Gm  Bb
I've got, I've gotta let you  go

[bridge]
      Bb                               F  Bb
But maybe I'm not really ready to give up you
        Bb                         F       Dm
'Cause nobody ever mattered to me like you do
              Dm
'Cause you're so up here,
F  Dm
I caught that feeling
     F     Gm Am  Gm    Bb
And touch the ceiling, ooh
                 Bb
I wish I could describe
                    F      Bb
it with words just ain't enough

And nothing that
Bb                        F    Dm
I could say would ever measure up
         Dm                 F    Dm
But what I can't stand is you're outta my hands
       F      Gm  Am     Gm
And up outta your plans, ooh

[chorus]
Bb                                F
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Bb                               F
 Been hiding, had to wait for so long
Dm                                    F
 And it's the subtleties, you've only ever seen
Dm                       F    Gm Am  Gm
 Bringing the mess of me back  to ge ther
Bb                                F
 You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Bb                                 F
 Been stumbling, half awake for so long
Dm
 Gotta forget that feeling,
            F        Dm
give into something real
           F     Gm   Am  Gm  Bb
I've got, I've gotta let you  go
