PART 1
[Allen Ginsberg]
C
A young man sits on the bridge
After nightfall
And looks across the Hudson River to New Jersey
He wonders about life
And he wonders if he'll ever get old
He sees the lights
He wonders if they are talking to each other
And he wonders if they are talking to him
And he asks if they are
[Arthur Russell]
C
My mind settles down
F G C
On those lights from New Jersey
F C F G C
Why I chose New Jersey to look at, I don't know
C
Well one thing's for sure
F
I'm here to see those lights
G C
It doesn't matter, don't matter, no
F C
Where I come from or where I go
C G
Well what does it mean
F
Those lights
C F G C
I can't resist the thought that they are twinkling to each other
F C
Are they?
F C
Are they?
[Allen Ginsberg / continue repeating the chord progression from previous vers
e]
His leisure hours are spent in a way
That mystifies his younger years
