Kick the heels into the Brooklyn dirt
  C              Bm          F#dim

Coney Island roller coaster
G           D

You know you are so elegant when you run
 
           G           D
Oh if you run, you can run
C            Bm
To that statue with the dictionary
G           D
Climb to her fingernail 
    C               Bm
And leap yeah! take an atmospheric

I'm the tab writer...I'd like to correct a couple of things. First of all, the song should end on G6, not C. Second of all...lemme write out some of the weirder chords. F#dim: xxx1212 G6: 320000

Dude, you beat me to it... I was trying to figure out that F#dim chord, but nothing was sounding right. I haven't tried F#dim out, but I'm sure it's right. How cool is that, tabbing the freakin' song before the album's even been released! Respect.

F#dim sounds great, yeah, well done. Also, yes, it´s G6 in the end. Great tab
