[Intro]
Em C Em C
[Verse 1]
Em
You’re walking around in the morning the day is all yours
C
Forget about the economy, hardships and the cause
Em
Take some time for dreaming some time for a little wine
C Em
There’s no one there to tell you how to spend your time... how to spend your time
[Verse 2]
Em
You’re strolling down the shady side of Andrassy Avenue
C
The sun and wind are hot today and the sky’s a magnificent blue
Em
Don’t feel you have a care in the world you feel good to be alive
C Em
Ideas are flowing free in this city you’ll survive, you’ll survive
[Chorus]
G D Em
She doesn’t know where you’ve been
G D Em
She doesn’t know the things you’ve seen
G D C Em
But I’m sure she knows that she’s the best
G D Em
I’m sure she knows does Budapest.
[Verse 3]
Em
Walk the streets a glorious past a bit rough around the edge
C
The people tell you stories of victories and revenge
Em
You’re thoughts and feelings are with them they don’t know who you are
C Em
Just another tourist another face there in the bar another face there in the bar
[Verse 4]
Em
Crossing the Danube at night there’s a full moon in the sky
C
Many bridges in a different time some were bombed but who knows why
Em
It’s a balmy night the cafes are full there pretty girls around
C Em
Raise a glass drink to your friends and this treasure that you’ve found... treasure that you found
[Chorus]
G D Em
She doesn’t know where you’ve been
G D Em
She doesn’t know the things you’ve seen
G D C Em
But I’m sure she knows that she’s the best
G D Em
I’m sure she knows does Budapest.
[Instrumental]
Em C Em C
[Verse 5]
Em
Hot water pouring from the ground since the beginning of time
C
Bathes to ease the body and soul in the park on the yellow line
Em
There’s two sides to her nature a Buda and a Pest
C Em
In the city you can party all night in the hills you can take a rest... you can take a rest
[Chorus]
G D Em
She doesn’t know where you’ve been
G D Em
She doesn’t know the things you’ve seen
G D C Em
But I’m sure she knows that she’s the best
G D Em
I’m sure she knows does Budapest.
[Chorus]
G D Em
She doesn’t know where you’ve been
G D Em
She doesn’t know the things you’ve seen
G D C Em
But I’m sure she knows that she’s the best
G D Em
I’m sure she knows does Budapest.
[Outro]
G D Em
I’m sure she knows does Budapest.
G D Em
I’m sure she knows does Budapest
G D Em
Budapest
G D Em
