Berlin

A

[Verse 1]
       A
It was cold in the morning when I left Berlin
                                   E
But last night's drinks had kept a fire burnin' in
   D                     A
My heart so I needed the chill and the dim
      E                      A
White light of the sun on my sallow skin


[Chorus]
  A
Before we even get a chance to choose
                  E
We are already forgiven
D                 A
We are already forgiven
       E                       A
We are older than the world we live in


[Verse 2]
    A
You can't be early, you can't be late
                        E
It's not a city, it's a state
     D                  A
It's not a city, it's a state, an island
E                      A
Secret, secluded and excitin'


[Chorus]
  A
Before we even get a chance to choose
                  E
We are already forgiven
D                 A
We are already forgiven
       E                       A
We are older than the world we live in

[Interlude]

A E D A E A

[Verse 3]
       A
In the bars they're aloof but they keep an open mind
                       E
Smoke inside and drink outside
D                          A
Smoke inside and drink warm lager beer
         E                                A
It's the freedom, it's the freedom that I love down here


Chorus]
  A
Before we even get a chance to choose
                  E
We are already forgiven
D                 A
We are already forgiven
       E                       A
We are older than the world we live in


Chorus]
  A
Before we even get a chance to choose
                  E
We are already forgiven
D                 A
We are already forgiven
       E                       A
We are older than the world we live in
