Intro C
C
On the museum island,
G
At the end of the day,
C
we had travelled for miles,
G
We had come to escape
F
All the space on the page
C Am
That the newspapers gave
G F C
Up to pictures and pictures of us.
C
As we followed the coffin
G
Of your famous father.
C
Adjusting our skirts
G
As we turned at the altar.
F
And within every word
C Am
That they'd written, was spelt out
G F C
You'd taken your last ever bus.
C
So skimming the surface
G
Of all your new money,
C
we skimmed the surface
G
Of the air as we flew.
F
we were out of the rain,
C Am
we were thinking that maybe
G F C
Berlin was the place to renew.
F
well you know what they say
C
About terrible hate -
Am
It will breed something good
C
When it's through.
F
At the end of the day,
C Am
By the Potsdamer Place
G F
And the Brandenburg Gate,
C
It was you.
hold C for interlude
C
You have hardened completely
G
By the end of this story,
C
You have learned to look clear
G
Through the flash of a bulb,
C
When you hear your own name
G
From the back of a crowd,
C
You just straighten your gaze,
G
No you don't turn around.
F
Oh but there was a time
C
At the end of the day,
Am
We were both stood in line
C
At the museum display,
F
And you outshone the light
C
Under which you were bathed,
Am
You could outshine the sky
C
With the look that you gave,
F
Oh so don't be afraid
C
To look back and wave,
Am C
Now that waving is all that you do.
F
At the end of the day,
C Am
By the Potsdamer Place,
G F C
I am waving back at you.
hold C for interlude
F
So don't be afraid
C
To look back and wave,
Am C
Now that waving is all that you do.
F
At the end of the day,
C Am
By the Potsdamer Place,
G F C
I am waving back at you.
