(início)

E           B    E            C        G     C  G
Here in Berlin - people line up to get in
   E            B    E          C        G   C  G
To wait for the end - living in glorious sin
  E              B     E                  C           G      C  G
They've looked around - and now there is no looking back
        E           B    E             C              G       C   G
To when rivers ran red - now it's the sky that grows black
  E          B      E                 C       G       C  G
Shadows are cast as two giants roam over the earth
 E          B        E                C           G    C  G
We light a match - but what is that little flame worth

Chorus 1

 A    F#m    D          E
Once allies danced and sang
            A  B  C    D E
But it was forty years ago
E  B  E  C  G  C   G

Verse 2

E        B   E                   C     G      C   G
Here in D.C. - they talk about 'Euro-disease'
 E           B     E              C            G     C   G
And how the French are always so damn hard to please
 E            B   E                C         G      C  G
Motions are passed in Brussels but no one agrees
 E                B   E                  C            G      C  G
And no one walks tall - but no-one gets down on their knees

Chorus 2

A     F#m     D          E
Once allies laughed and drank
            A  B C      D E
But it was forty years ago
E  B  E  C  G  C  G

Verse 3

E             B
Where I come from
E                C         G    C  G
They don't like Americans much
E                      B   E                   C         G    C   G
They think they're so loud, so tasteless, and so out of touch
E            B   E                C          G      C  G
Stiff upper lips are curled into permanent sneers
E          B
Self-satisfied
E             C          G    C   G
Awaiting the next forty years

Chorus 3

A     F#m     D        E
Once allies cried and cheered
           A  B   C    D E
But it was forty years ago
