[Intro]
Em     C     Em     C
[Verse 1]
EmYou’re walking around in the morning   the day is all yours
CForget about the economy,  hardships and the cause
EmTake some time for dreaming    some time for a little wine
CThere’s no one there to tell you how to spend your time... how to spend your tEmime
[Verse 2]
EmYou’re strolling down the shady side of Andrassy Avenue
CThe sun and wind are hot today and the sky’s a magnificent blue
EmDon’t feel you have a care in the world you feel good to be alive
CIdeas are flowing free in this city you’ll survive,  you’ll surEmvive
[Chorus]
SGhe doesn’t knDow where you’ve bEmeen
SGhe doesn’t knDow the things you’ve sEmeen
BGut I’m sure she knDows that sChe’s the bEmest
GI’m sure she kDnows does BudEmapest.
[Verse 3]
EmWalk the streets a glorious past a bit rough around the edge
CThe people tell you stories of victories and revenge
EmYou’re thoughts and feelings are with them    they don’t know who you are
CJust another tourist  another face there in the bar     another face there in the bEmar
[Verse 4]
EmCrossing the Danube at night there’s a full moon in the sky
CMany bridges in a different time some were bombed but who knows why
EmIt’s a balmy night the cafes are full there pretty girls around
CRaise a glass drink to your friends and this treasure that you’ve found... tEmreasure that you found
[Chorus]
SGhe doesn’t knDow where you’ve bEmeen
SGhe doesn’t knDow the things you’ve sEmeen
BGut I’m sure she knDows that sChe’s the bEmest
GI’m sure she kDnows does BudEmapest.
[Instrumental]
Em      C      Em      C
[Verse 5]
EmHot water pouring from the ground since the beginning of time
CBathes to ease the body and soul in the park on the yellow line
EmThere’s two sides to her nature     a Buda and a Pest
CIn the city you can party all night in the hills you can take a rest... you can take a rEmest
[Chorus]
SGhe doesn’t knDow where you’ve bEmeen
SGhe doesn’t knDow the things you’ve sEmeen
BGut I’m sure she knDows that sChe’s the bEmest
GI’m sure she kDnows does BudEmapest.
[Chorus]
SGhe doesn’t knDow where you’ve bEmeen
SGhe doesn’t knDow the things you’ve sEmeen
BGut I’m sure she knDows that sChe’s the bEmest
GI’m sure she kDnows does BudEmapest.
[Outro]
IG’m sure she knDows does BudaEmpest.
IG’m sure she knDows does BudaEmpest
