First We Take Manhattan

Em Am Em

They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom

Am Em

For trying to change the system from within

Am Em

I`m coming now, I`m coming to reward them

First we take Manhattan then we take Berlin.

I`m guided by the signal in the heaven

I`m guided by this birthmark on my skin

I`m guided by the beauty of our weapons

First...

R: I`d really like to live beside you, baby

I love your body and your spirit and your clothes

But you see that line there moving trough the station?

I told you, I told you, I told you I was one of those.

Am Em

Ah, you loved me as a loser, but now you`re worried that I just might win

Am Em

You knouw the way to stop me, but you don`t have the discipline

Am Em

How many nights I prayed for this to let my work begin

First we take Manhattan then we take Berlin

I don`t like your fashion business, mister,

And I don`t like these drugs that keep you thin

I don`t like what happened to my sister

First...

R: I`d really...

And thank you for those items that you send me

The monkey and the plywood violin

I practice every night and now I`m ready

First...

I remember I used to live for music

Remember me, I brought you groceries in

Well, it`s Father`s Day, and everybody`s wounded

First...
