Moonlight And Vodka
Words & Music by Chris de Burgh
Dm Bb A
Fix me a drink make it a strong one,
Dm Bb A
Hey comrade a drink, make it a long one,
Bb F
My hands are shaking and my feet are numb.
C Dm
My head is aching and the bar's going round
Bb
And I'm so down
A
In this foreign town
Dm
Tonight there's a band,
Bb A Dm
It ain't such a bad one, play me a song
Bb A
Don't make it a sad one
Bb F
I can't even talk to these Russian girls
Fm G
The beer is lousy and the food is worse
Cm Bb Ab
And ist's so damned cold,
Cm Bb Ab
Yes it's so damned cold.
Cm
I know it's hard to believe
Ab G
But I haven't been warm for a week;
Dm Gm C Dm
Moonlight and vodka takes me away
Gm7 Bb A
Midnight in Moscow is lunchtime in L.A,-
Dm7-Bb-A-Dm-Bb-A-Bb-C-Dm-Bb/F-F-C-Dm-Bb-A-Dm
Oh play boys play;
Espionage is a serious business,
Well I've had enough of this serious business
That dancing girl is making eyes at me
I'm sure she's working for the K.G.B.
In this paradise, ah as cold as ice;
Moonlight and vodka, takes me away
Midnight in Moscow, is sunshine in L.A.
Dm - F - Bb - A
Yes in the good old U.S.A.
