Standard (EADGBE)

Fix me a drink make it a strong one,

Hey comrade a drink, make it a long one,

My hands are shaking and my feet are numb.

My head is aching and the bar's going round

And I'm so down

In this foreign town

Tonight there's a band,

It ain't such a bad one, play me a song

Don't make it a sad one

I can't even talk to these Russian girls

The beer is lousy and the food is worse

And ist's so damned cold,

Yes it's so damned cold.

I know it's hard to believe

But I haven't been warm for a week;

Moonlight and vodka takes me away

Midnight in Moscow is lunchtime in L.A,-

Oh play boys play;

Espionage is a serious business,

Well I've had enough of this serious business

That dancing girl is making eyes at me

I'm sure she's working for the K.G.B.

In this paradise, ah as cold as ice;

Moonlight and vodka, takes me away

Midnight in Moscow, is sunshine in L.A.

Yes in the good old U.S.A.
