      D                    F#m                Bm     D    
'Oh I come from Pittsburgh to study astrology,' 
        G                  A7                  D    
She said as she stood on my instep, 
              F#m                  Bm              F#m 
'I could show you New York with a walk between 
Bm                         A7 
Fourth Street and Nine.' 
          D               F#m            Bm     D 
Then out of her coat taking seven harmonicas 
        G                  A7            D 
She sat down to play on a doorstep saying 
F#m                  Bm                    F#m                Bm 
'Come back to my place I will show you the stars 
              A      Em   A7    
and the signs'.
