 Intro: Bm

         Em                             Bm
 They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
       Em                              Bm
 For trying to change the system from within
      Em                     Bm
 Im coming now Im coming to reward them
   A            G         F#7           Bm   
 First we take Manhattan then we take Ber-lin


     Em                        Bm
 Im guided by a signal in the heavens
     Em                            Bm
 Im guided by this birthmark on my skin
     Em                           Bm
 Im guided by the beauty of our weapons
   A            G         F#7           Bm
 First we take Manhattan then we take Berlin


      D                            A
 Id really like to live beside you baby
              G                              Bm
 I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
          Em                                     Bm
 But you see that line there moving through the station?
    A          G        F#7 
 I told you I told you told you
               Bm
 I was one of those 



 Ah you loved me as a loser
 but now youre worried that I just might win
 You know the way to stop me
 but you dont have the discipline
 How many nights I prayed for this
 to let my work begin

 First we take Manhattan then we take Berlin
 I dont like your fashion business mister
 And I dont like these drugs that keep you thin
 I dont like what happened to my sister
 First we take Manhattan then we take Berlin

 Id really like to live beside you baby
 I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
 But you see that line there moving through the station?
 I told you I told you told you
 I was one of those 

 And I thank you for those items that you sent me
 The monkey and the plywood violin
 I practiced every night now Im ready
 First we take Manhattan then we take Berlin
 
 I am guided
 Ah remember me I used to live for music
 Remember me I brought your groceries in
 Well its fathers day and everybodys wounded
 First we take Manhattan then we take Berlin
