1.)
The sun that shines on you, shines on Russia too
               G        Am    C         G     Am
what's it all about, you know you're not the only one
                E                             Am
to hurt when you're in pain, 
    F                   Dm
when you feel lonely, when you feel strange.
                E7                      G


Chorus:
Hey American man, Russian and Japanese
 C           Em                 Am
Germany, Britain and Italy, can't you see.
 F        Dm          Em      G
Brown, yellow and black what could the difference be
 C                  Em                    Am
nothing, but nothing is what it seems, it's all a dream.
  F             Dm       Em                  G


2.)
The sea that separates you, is simply a space coloured blue
     C        G  Am             C         G     Am
on an atlas of the world that's shrinking fast
                    E                      Am
let's let it live, let's let it last
              F                  Dm
let's have the future, forget the past.
                 E                 G

Hey American man, Russian and Japanese

Germany, Britain and Italy, can't you see.
 F        Dm          Em      G
Brown, yellow and black what could the difference be
 C                  Em                    Am
nothing, but nothing is what it seems, it's all a dream.
  F             Dm       Em                  G


3.)
And the words are different it's true
          C         G             Am
but you still got to live your whole life through
          C           G                     Am
but jealousy and pain remain the same
                  E               Am
so cheers, auf wiedersehn adie and come again
     F               Dm             E7
let's all be friends, let's all be friends.
       G


Chorus: 
Hey American man, Russian and Japanese

Germany, Britain and Italy, can't you see.

Brown, yellow and black what could the difference be
 C                  Em                    Am
nothing, but nothing is what it seems, it's all a dream.
