[Versetto]Am EmThey sentenced me to twenty years of boredomAm EmFor trying to change the system from withinAm EmI'm coming now I'm coming to reward themD C B EmFirst we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin[Versetto]Am EmI'm guided by a signal in the heavensAm EmI'm guided by this birthmark on my skinAm EmI'm guided by the beauty of our weaponsD C B EmFirst we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin[Ritornello]G DI'd really like to live beside you, babyC D G EmI love your body and your spirit and your clothesAm EmBut you see that line there moving through the stationD C B EmI told you, I told you, told you I was one of those[Versetto]Am EmYou loved me as a loser but now your worried that I just might winAm EmYou know the way to stop me but you don't have the disciplineAm EmHow many nights I prayed for this: to let my work beginD C B EmFirst we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin[Versetto]Am EmI don't like your fashion business, misterAm EmI don't like these drugs that keep you thinAm EmI don't like what happened to your sisterD C B EmFirst we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin[Ritornello]G DI'd really like to live beside you, babyC D G EmI love your body and your spirit and your clothesAm EmBut you see that line there moving through the stationD C B EmI told you, I told you, told you I was one of those[Versetto]Am EmAnd I thank you for those items that you sent meAm EmThe monkey end the plywood violinAm EmI practiced every night now I'm readyD C B EmFirst we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin[Versetto]Am EmRemember me, I used to live for musicAm EmRemember me, I brought your groceries inAm EmIt's Father's Day and everybody's woundedD C B EmFirst we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin[Outro]E D Em(Repeat and fade out)
