Brooklyn by Steely Dan
Brooklyn
[C11] [F] [Am7] [D] [C11] [F] [C]
[FMaj] A race of angels[Em7]bound with [Dm7] one[C]another
[FMaj7]A dish of dollars[Em7] laid out for [Dm7]all to[G]see
[Em7]A tower room at[G9]Eden Rock,[C]his golf at[Bb]noon for[A7]free
[C11]Brooklyn owes the[F]charmer[Am7]under[D]me
[C11]Brooklyn owes the[F]charmer under[C] me
His lady's aching to bring a body down
She daily preaches on where she wants to be
An evening with a movie queen, a face we all have seen
Brooklyn owes the charmer under me
Brooklyn owes the charmer under me
A case of aces done up loose for dealing
A piece of island coolin' in the sea
The whole of time we gain or lose, and power enough to choose
Brooklyn owes the charmer under me
Brooklyn owes the charmer under me

This is how I play it--maybe not exactly how it sounds on the original recording, but
darn close. I find it difficult to play Bb so I sometimes use the fifth and when I'm
adventurous I use Bb13 (x20233). A flashy technique I also like is to bar the C11 chord
your thumb then quckly jump back to the barred F chord during he chorus. Listen to the
over and over and you'll get the rhythm.
