[Verse]
G
They called me Margaretha the day that I was born
Am G D
The day I died the soldiers called me H21
Em C
In the circuses and palaces, a hundred names I've borne
G D
From the Belle of the Epoque to the eye of the storm
Em D G
But if anybody asks, I named myself after the sun
G
I was a teacher when I was young
D G
But I ran away from home
C D C
To the East Indies and warm, warm sun
D G
To wed a man I did not know
D G
He called me Lady MacLeod
D G
But the times did not allow
C G D Bm C
My complaints as drinking dragged him down
D G
So in dancing peace I found
[Verse 2]

They called me a tourist when I began to dance
Em G D
An amateur and courtesan when I came to France
Em C
On the stages, in the salons, I held my tongue

I was never owned by any man nor known by anyone
Em D G
And if anybody asks, I named myself after the sun
Em D G
I never cared much for their war

I had seen men fight before

I would dance for them no more

They came to take me away

Told the soldiers I've nothing to say

Am G
But as I stood in that killing field, refusing a blindfold
C Em A
Staring down the soldiers and the hatred of the world
Am Em G
I felt the warmth of the Malay sun and I smiled for them all
Em
They all thought they had the best of me
A D D7
But not one of them could say what I was called
[Verse 3]
Just before the darkness came
I whispered my real name
C
I am Mata Hari, eye of the day
D G
In the cells my body lay unclaimed
G D Em C G D7
Em D C
If anybody asks, I named myself after the sun
Em D G
If anybody asks, I named myself after the sun
