Jesse Malin - 'Brooklyn'
'The Fine Art of Self Destruction' 2002

Really nice song. The verses are all the same, just E to A. And I've only written 
out the chorus once, again it's always the same. Chord spacing looks a bit out in 
this format but it's pretty much a bar each at the intro/verse/bridge and half a 
bar for the chorus/link. Enjoy!

Capo 2nd fret.

Verse:
No more couches to surf
Only beaches in your dreams
No more trannies near work
It's still a drag walking in Queens

It's all blood money in the bank
Somehow some people find the nerve
Like the soldiers they thank down in DC
If I could only find the words
