[Intro]
C G C G A B C F C Eb D
[Verse 1]
G A B C F C
Berlin, Berlin, she shines like a mirror ball
Eb D G
A hot day, protege
G A B C F C
she puts her highest heels back on
Eb D
Each dance could be the death of me
C G C
And I know she needs her money
G F C
And you know she digs her cat call
G D
You know they'll be coming
N.C
To watch her put it on and take it off
[Verse 2]
G A B C F C
Berlin, Berlin, the star of the dark burlesque show
Eb D G
She lives for its madness
G A B C F C
She swings herself around the pole slow
Eb D C
She slips out of a prom dress
C G C
And all the ladies wanna be her
G F C
And all the grown men wanna cry
G D
But then I only wanna kiss you
C
Just once maybe twice
[Bridge]
D
Then I could show you around
C
That is, if you'd wanna come
D
and I could play it cool
C
if I wasn't playin' it dumb
[Chorus]
G C
But Berlin she ain't the kind of woman
G C
To have one boy she calls
A C
She feeds from the touch of one lover
Eb D G C G
But can't resist the touch of them all
G C G C
Oh Berlin baby, I know I'd never be the kind you'd like
A C
I'll toss myself back into the corner
Eb D G C G
And I'll catch you every Sunday night
C G A B C F C Eb D
[Verse 3]
G A B C F C
Dollar bills, red lipstick on a cigarette butt
Eb D G
And trash-talk on her tongue
G A B C F C
I tried making eyes but guess what
Eb D C
That man came on his microphone
C G C
He said "you're in for a real treat"
G F C
And just like that she left my side
G D
She took the stage instead of taking me
C
And worked it all the live-long night
[Bridge]
D
And I could show you the town
C
If I knew where to begin
D
And I could show you out
C
If I wasn't on my way in
[Chorus]
G C
But Berlin she ain't the kind of woman
G C
To have one boy she calls
A C
She feeds from the touch of one lover
Eb D G C G
But can't resist the touch of them all
G C G C
Well, Berlin, baby, I know I'd never be the kind you'd like
A C
I'll toss myself back into the corner
Eb D G C G
And I'll catch you every Sunday night
