Verse
Gm Cm Gm
I followed you over the border down to the Spree
Gm Cm F A#
You were standing alone by the water waiting for me
Gm Cm D Gm
We wandered along by the river, the towers all shrouded in haze
Cm Gm
& we kissed by the wire and they all held their fire
D Gm
In the good old bad old days
F A#
Just remember how lovely it couldn’t have been
D# A#
When the world was as closed as a door
Cm Gm
I remember those nights down in old east Berlin
D D7
With the microphones listening under the floor
F A#
And every stamp in this passport of mine
D# A#
Was a record of kisses you gave
Cm Gm
Yes we suffered in style and its all in the file
D Gm
In the good old bad old days
[Chorus]
Gm
Yai dei dei, dei dei dei, dei dei dei da dei dei
Cm Gm
Ya dei da dei dei dei dei
Cm Gm
Ya dei dei dei,ya dei da dei
D Gm
Ya da dei dei dei dei dei
[Verse 2]
Gm Cm Gm
All the streetlights were waltzing together, crimson & green
Gm Cm F A#
& your dress was as gray as the weather, oh what a dream
Gm Cm D Gm
We built up a city of whispers and classified war dossiers
Cm Gm
I gave you control of my papers and soul
D Gm
In the good old bad old days
F A#
Ah yes wasn’t it miserable, wasn’t it grand?
D# A#
When the world had an iron divide
Cm Gm
And people could take a political stand
D D7
Just by singing a song for the opposite side
F A# D# A#
Now nobody cares who you are anymore and nobody cares what you say
Cm Gm
Its libertys curse, but was it really much worse
D Gm
In the good old bad old days?
[Chorus]
Gm
Yai dei dei, dei dei dei, dei dei dei da dei dei
Cm Gm
Ya dei da dei dei dei dei
Cm Gm
Ya dei dei dei,ya dei da dei
D Gm
Ya da dei dei dei dei dei
[Verse 3]
Gm Cm Gm
Now Alyosha is gathering flowers every May
Gm Cm F A#
& the statue of Marx by the tower faces away
Gm Cm D Gm
By the wall is a souvenir table with hammers & sickles displayed
Cm Gm
On new watches, that work, and they-re sold by a Turk
D Gm
In these good old bad new days
F A#
Now I’m working for Euros and drinking alone
D# A#
Where we used to spend marks at the bar
Cm Gm
And the weeds have grown over the border of stone
D D7
That cuts through the town like a surgical scar
F A#
And so many streets on this faded old map
D# A#
Are like names written over a grave
Cm Gm
It all makes me so mad cause it wasnt that bad
D Gm
In the good old bad old days
[Outro]
Gm Cm Gm
So dont look for a final solution here in Berlin
Gm Cm F A#
For capitalist prostitution comes from within
Gm Cm D Gm
Don’t worry about revolution we’ll just keep the aesthetic cliches
Cm Gm
In this market of fleas, selling klezmer CDs
D Gm
For the good old bad old days
F A#
So genossen, tavarishi, let’s make a toast
D# A#
To the time when the state knew your name
Cm Gm
And we-ll all say -lchaim-, -na zdrovye- und -Prost-
D D7
To that braver old world where we all are the same
F A#
Where nobody loses & everyone wins
D# A#
Just as long as each comrade obeys
Cm Gm
But thats all in the past so lets raise up a glass
D Gm
To the good old bad old days
