I And Love And You
D G D
Load the car and write the note
D G D
Grab your bag and grab your coat
D G D
Tell the ones that need to know
D- A G
We are headed north
D G D
One foot in and one foot back
D G D
But it don't play to live like that
D G D
So I cut the ties and I jumped the tracks
D A G
For never to return
D G D
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
D G D
Are you aware the shape Im in?
D G D
My hands they shake my head it spins
D -G D
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
D G D
When at first i learned to speak
D G D
I used all my words to fight
D G D
With him and her and you and me
D A G
Aw but its just a waste of time
D A G
Yea its such a waste of time
D G D
That women she's got eyes that shine
D G D
Like a pair of stolen polished dimes
D- G D
She asked to dance I said it's fine (aw it's fine)
D G D
I'll see you in the morning time
D G D
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
D G D
Are you aware the shape Im in?
D G D
My hands they shake my head it spins
D -G D
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
D G D
Three words that became hard to say
D A G
I and love and you
D G D
What you are then I am today
D A G
Look at the things I do
D G D
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
D G D
Are you aware the shape Im in?
D G D
My hands they shake my head it spins
D -G D
Aw Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in
D G D
Dumb down and numbed by time and age
D G D
Your dreams they catch the world the cage
D G D
The highway sets the travelers stage
D A G
All exits look the same
D G D
Three words that became hard to say
D A G
I and love and you
D A G
I and love and you
D A G
I and love and you

version 2
For the F (on the first 3 bars) I like to
play [x x 3 2 1 0] (which I'm going to refer to as Fmaj7), and close with a full F
(Major Barre) on the 4th bar (after the G). Lots of ways to go about it. Obviously
it's a piano song but it makes for a nice and easy guitar tune. Make it your own!

version 3
Tune every string down a whole step (D B C F A D).
Chord Pattern I:
Load the car and write the note
e|-0-----------------0--------0---|
B|-0-----------------2--------0---|
G|-9-----------------2--------1---|
D|-9-----------------2--------2---|
A|-7-----------------0--------2---|
E|-0-----------------x--------0---|
repeat Chord Pattern I through first three lines of every verse:
Grab your bag and grab your coat
e|-0-----------------0--------0---|
B|-0-----------------2--------0---|
G|-9-----------------2--------1---|
D|-9-----------------2--------2---|
A|-7-----------------0--------2---|
E|-0-----------------x--------0---|
Tell the ones that need to know
e|-0-----------------0--------0---|
B|-0-----------------2--------0---|
G|-9-----------------2--------1---|
D|-9-----------------2--------2---|
A|-7-----------------0--------2---|
E|-0-----------------x--------0---|
Chord Pattern II:
We are headed north
e|-4------2------0------|
B|-5------4------2------|
G|-6------4------2------|
D|-6------4------2------|
A|-4------2------0------|
E|-x------x------x------|
The whole song goes this way,
with the small exception that no matter where it appears in the verse,
"I and Love and You" is always accompanied by Chord Pattern II.
You can alternate using the high E chord (079900) and the standard E (022100)
to start off Chord Pattern I.
I like using only standard E (022100) in the "Brooklyn" verses.
