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