 C7                         F7
I was born on the other side

  Bb7                    C7
Of a town ripped in two


 C7                         F7
I made it over the great divide

Verse:
 C7                         F7
I rose from off of the doctor's slab

Like Lazarus from the pit

Now everyone wants to take a stab

 Bb7                        C7
And decorate me with blood graffiti and spit

Spoken part:
N.C.On August 13th, 1961

A wall was erected

Down the middle of the city of Berlin
N.C.The world was divided by a cold war

And the Berlin wall

Was the most hated symbol of that divide
N.C.Reviled, graffitied, spit upon

We thought the wall would stand forever.

And now that it's gone
N.C.We don't know who we are anymore

Ladies and gentlemen

Hedwig is like that wall
N.C.Standing before you in the divide

Between east and west

Slavery and freedom
N.C.Man and woman, top and bottom

And you can try and tear her down

But before you do
N.C.You must remember one thing

Verse:
 C7                         F7
Hey, there ain't much of a difference

 Bb7                        C7
Between a bridge and a wall

 C7                         F7
Without me right in the middle, babe

 Bb7                        C7
You would be nothin' at all


Chorus:
 C7                         F7
Enemies and adversaries

 Bb7                        C7
They try and tear me down

 C7                         F7
You want me baby, I dare you

 Bb7                        C7
Try and tear me down

 C7                         F7
Enemies and adversaries

 Bb7                        C7
They try and tear me down

 C7                         F7
You want me baby, I dare you

 Bb7                        C7
Try and tear me down


ending:
 F
From east Berlin to junction city

 Eb
Hello New York hello Missouri

 F

 Eb
Come on and tear, come on and tear me down
