Bridge (or "other part", depending on your musical knowledge & prowess)



I broke the bridge into two levels of complexity. This way, the less 

dexterous guitar player can focus on the melody (bass) line before 

attempting to add the "fill" notes.





Bridge: type a) this part shows just the promenant melody line)

differences highlighted as *)

Lyrics:



Verse:     Moving in a bus too close for comfort 

           Listening to all the gibberish around me 

           wonder! How much longer can I stand it 

           Looking for a phone I cannot find 



PreChorus: Ohh woe is me 

           Like a politician in disguise 

           You know I had to look you in the eyes 

           and smile 

           While I crawled another mile in 



Chorus:    Germany, lost in Germany 



Verse:     Swimming in an ocean of your feelings 

           Counting every moment go one by one 

           Laughing to keep from crying out in anger 

           Praying that i can make it through this night 



PreChorus: Ohh woe is me 

           It was like a never ending week 

           But I learned to turn the other cheek 

           and smile 

           While I ran for one more mile in 



Chorus:    Germany, lost in Germany 

           Germany, lost in Germany 



Verse:     Shooting at a target that eludes me 

           Hammering on a nail that just won't go in 

           Biting on a tongue that wants to speak out 

           Searching for a light that I can shine 





PreChorus: Ohh woe is me 

           But now I have crossed that borderline 

           and I wonder if I'll ever find 

           your hand 

           `Cause I did not understand in 



Chorus:    Germany, lost in Germany

           Germany, lost in Germany
