Verse
Bm Em Bm
I followed you over the border down to the Spree
Bm Em A D
You were standing alone by the water waiting for me
Bm Em F# Bm
We wandered along by the river, the towers all shrouded in haze
Em Bm
& we kissed by the wire and they all held their fire
F# Bm
In the good old bad old days
A D
Just remember how lovely it couldn’t have been
G D
When the world was as closed as a door
Em Bm
I remember those nights down in old east Berlin
F# F#7
With the microphones listening under the floor
A D
And every stamp in this passport of mine
G D
Was a record of kisses you gave
Em Bm
Yes we suffered in style and its all in the file
F# Bm
In the good old bad old days
[Chorus]
Bm
Yai dei dei, dei dei dei, dei dei dei da dei dei
Em Bm
Ya dei da dei dei dei dei
Em Bm
Ya dei dei dei,ya dei da dei
F# Bm
Ya da dei dei dei dei dei
[Verse 2]
Bm Em Bm
All the streetlights were waltzing together, crimson & green
Bm Em A D
& your dress was as gray as the weather, oh what a dream
Bm Em F# Bm
We built up a city of whispers and classified war dossiers
Em Bm
I gave you control of my papers and soul
F# Bm
In the good old bad old days
A D
Ah yes wasn’t it miserable, wasn’t it grand?
G D
When the world had an iron divide
Em Bm
And people could take a political stand
F# F#7
Just by singing a song for the opposite side
A D G D
Now nobody cares who you are anymore and nobody cares what you say
Em Bm
Its libertys curse, but was it really much worse
F# Bm
In the good old bad old days?
[Chorus]
Bm
Yai dei dei, dei dei dei, dei dei dei da dei dei
Em Bm
Ya dei da dei dei dei dei
Em Bm
Ya dei dei dei,ya dei da dei
F# Bm
Ya da dei dei dei dei dei
[Verse 3]
Bm Em Bm
Now Alyosha is gathering flowers every May
Bm Em A D
& the statue of Marx by the tower faces away
Bm Em F# Bm
By the wall is a souvenir table with hammers & sickles displayed
Em Bm
On new watches, that work, and they-re sold by a Turk
F# Bm
In these good old bad new days
A D
Now I’m working for Euros and drinking alone
G D
Where we used to spend marks at the bar
Em Bm
And the weeds have grown over the border of stone
F# F#7
That cuts through the town like a surgical scar
A D
And so many streets on this faded old map
G D
Are like names written over a grave
Em Bm
It all makes me so mad cause it wasnt that bad
F# Bm
In the good old bad old days
[Outro]
Bm Em Bm
So dont look for a final solution here in Berlin
Bm Em A D
For capitalist prostitution comes from within
Bm Em F# Bm
Don’t worry about revolution we’ll just keep the aesthetic cliches
Em Bm
In this market of fleas, selling klezmer CDs
F# Bm
For the good old bad old days
A D
So genossen, tavarishi, let’s make a toast
G D
To the time when the state knew your name
Em Bm
And we-ll all say -lchaim-, -na zdrovye- und -Prost-
F# F#7
To that braver old world where we all are the same
A D
Where nobody loses & everyone wins
G D
Just as long as each comrade obeys
Em Bm
But thats all in the past so lets raise up a glass
F# Bm
To the good old bad old days
