Chorus:
N.C.        G5                Cm5 F
She's gonna bang her head like 1981
            G5                Cm5 F
She's gonna bang her head like 1981 (So long, farewell)

Verse:
G                               F*
  She's throwing punches to the beat
       Cm             G
To the sound of cable TV
                         F*        Cm
And she'll never see the world the same
G                         F*
  She is a Cold War in my head
    Cm           G
And I Am East Berlin
                      F*      Cm
On the danger side of parts unknown

We got one foot in the grave

F                      Fm
Crimes, foreman of the time

Champagne and party lives

God bless the end of times

We live the dream for fifteen minutes of fame
