Darlin’ why you look so [Fm/F]sad?
Has this place got you a[Fm/F]nxious
Trust me it’s not [Fm/F]you

etc…

Chorus

Let’s Go-Go-Go before an overreaction
Gets us in trouble, follow me now
Darling stay close to me
And I won’t won’t won’t ever let them hurt you
never again love, follow me now
Oh all is just a dream

Really simple song that is fun to play and sing. Capo on the 3rd fret. Listen to the
to get the strumming pattern.
The chord I’ve called C2 020010

Friday nights on the seventh floor
Fourth of July, Brooklyn’s on fire!
Paper backs on the corner store
Fourth of July, Brooklyn’s on fire!

Looking over the ledge
The sidewalk traffic starts to spread
Summer’s begun across the bay
And no bit of silence remains

Oh, Brooklyn’s on fire
And it fills July hearts with desire
Sleep will not come, until the morn
Cause tonight your memories are born
La dee da, la dee da de da de daa

And the band’s not begun just yet
Fourth of July, Brooklyn’s on fire!
Fifty names you’re bound to forget
Fourth of July, Brooklyn’s on fire!

Black and blue on the lakes
Wear badges from happier days
Late in the night, in ‘84
Walked in through the old out door

Oh, Brooklyn’s on fire
And it fills July hearts with desire
Sleep will not come, until the morn
Cause tonight your memories are born
La dee da, la dee da de da de daa

no words
Fourth of July, Brooklyn’s on fire!
no words
Fourth of July, Brooklyn’s on fire!

I’m caught in the way
Of tears from much happier days
When we were young and unafraid
Of stupid mistakes that we made

Oh, Brooklyn’s on fire
And it fills July hearts with desire
Sleep will not come, until the morn
Cause tonight your memories are born
La dee da, la dee da de da de daa

end on C.

Capo 2

Into: D

Verse 1:
Don’t shake the change out of your pockets in the boudoir

‘Cause that might wake someone there beside you

Who would scold you, boy

My pain could learn to play the violin

But it might not bring you back.

At least we’d have a pretty soundtrack

Chorus:

Think of me in the prison of hotel plaster

Far from the shelter of your side

Take me back to the rocking horse

Pray for answers, hold on to our light

Hold on to our light

Verse 2:

Don’t leave your lady waiting all night by the window

She might not be the kind who would forgive you

When the meal gets cold

I know we’ve hurt each other pretty bad

But this midnight horoscope

Tells me there’s a little more hope

Chorus 2:

Think of me in the prison of hotel plaster

Far from the shelter of your side

We broke a diamond with our bitter words

hold on to our light
(X2)

Hold on to our light
