verse 1 
 A 
Packed a book-bag 
 E                              E            A 
Socks and sneakers, and dress shoes just in case 
A                 E 
Sky bound for my home town 
        A                E 
To the north shore on a Sunday 
 A                  E 
Gave a kiss to my lady friend 
               E/G#             A 
She's a sweet talk and a sweet taste 
A                   E 
Gave thanks for my family 
               A                    E 
Thanks to my friends, I'm getting shit-faced 

Pre-Chorus 
Amaj7     G#7               C#m7 
  This Long Island, it's a desolate place 
Amaj7                G#7 
  A far cry from my first love, Michigan 
       C#m7              Amaj7 
  My sweet talk and my sweet taste 
Amaj7                  G#7 
  A long way from the long lost dreams 
         C#m7 
  Left broken on a California freeway 
         F#11 
  This Brooklyn 
        A 
  Oh, Brooklyn... 

A              E/G#    E   F#m G#m A 
  You make Detroit feel so far away 
                 A 
  And I've only 
        E/G# 
  Known you a day 
     E             A    A     E   (E A6 E) 
  I haven't even known you a day 
   A         E/G#          B       B7    C#m7 
  True like New York, but you lie like L.A 
  Bm          A 
  And I've only 
   (A)   E     E 
  Known you a day 
                     A       E  (E A6 E) 
  I haven't even know you a day 

verse 2 
 A           E 
Hopped a subway train 
                      E              A 
From Bleecker to the Park Slope real estate 
 A                   E 
Looked around for a sit-down brunch 
     A                E       (E A6 E) 
With all-you-can-eat poundcake 
 A            E 
Found a few, maybe six or seven 
   E                   A 
Free coffee and free champagne 
A              E 
I hadn't seen such a free time living 
          A              E 
Since my sixteenth birthday 

Pre-Chorus

  This Long Island, it's a desolate place 
Amaj7                G#7 
  A far cry from my first love, Michigan 
       C#m7              Amaj7 
  My sweet talk and my sweet taste 
Amaj7                  G#7 
  A long way from the long lost dreams 
         C#m7 
  Left broken on a California freeway 
         F#11

        A
