TITLE: I and Love and You
Lyrics and Chords


Load the car and write the note
Grab your bag and grab your coat 
Tell the ones that need to know
We are headed north

/ D - G D - - - / / / Bm A G - - - /

One foot in and one foot back
But it don't pay to live like that
So I cut the ties and I jumped the tracks
For never to return

{Refrain}
Oh, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in
Are you aware the shape I'm in
My hands they shake my head it spins
Oh, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in

/ D - G D - - - / :

When at first I learned to speak
I used all my words to fight
With him and her and you and me
Ah, but its just a waste of time
Yeah, it's such a waste of time

... / Bm A G - - - /

That woman she's got eyes that shine
Like a pair of stolen polished dimes 
She asked to dance, I said it's fine
I'll see you in the morning time

/ D - G D - - - / :

{Refrain}

Three words that became hard to say
I and love and you
What you are then I am today
Look at the things I do

/ D - G D - - - / Bm A G - - - / D - G D - - - / Bm A G - - - /

{Refrain twice}

Dumbed down and numbed by time and age
Your dreams they catch the world, the cage
The highway sets the travelers stage
All exits look the same

Three words that became hard to say
I and love and you
I and love and you
I and love and you

/ D - G D - - - / Bm A G - - - / / /
