Dodgers Were in Brooklyn

	  		FIRST VERSE: 
D Talked to my daddy last G night about the A nineteen fifty D two 
D I'd heard about the good ol' days 
G And I was A wonderin' if they were D true 
G Well it must have been, be A cause he smiled 
and his D eyes looked into G mine 
And I could D tell he touched a memory as he A  told me of a D time 
 
When the G Dodgers were in Brooklyn and the {D}air was clean 
G Marylyn Monroe was breaking D hearts on silver A screens 
Daddy G finally stole my momma's heart a{D}way from ol' James G Dean 
On the D other side of memory's fence, the A grass is always {D}green
 
 
SECOND VERSE: 
I talked to my momma, last night about the ways things use to be 
Showed me of a picture of some here and a guy that looked like me 
Spell bound around a tv in the den 
I wish that we could go back to those innocent times again 
 
CHORUS 
 
BRIDGE: 
G Now I know that time has D changed things 
G Then and now is day and D night 
G Memories will always D be larger than {G}life 
And it's all right here in black in A white 
 
CHORUS 
 
On the D other side of memory's fence, the A grass is always {D}green
