F C Dm A#
She said she was a dancer. If I believed it, it was my busines
F C Dm
She surely knew a thing or two about control.
F C
Next to the bar we hit the samovar.
Dm A#
She almost slipped right through my fingers.
F C Dm
It was snowing outside and in her soul.
[Verse 2]
F C Dm A#
Well, maybe you're a dancer, and maybe I'm the King of Old Siam.
F C Dm
I thought it through best to let the illusion roll.
F C
I wouldn't say I've never heard that tale before,
Dm A#
my frozen little señorita,
F C Dm
But if your dream is good, why not share it when the nights are cold?
[Chorus]
G C D
Hey Moscow, what's your story? Lady, take your time, don't hurry.
G D C F
Maybe a student of the agricultural plan.
G C D
Hey Moscow, what's your name? If you don't want to say, don't worry.
G D C F
It would probably be hard for me to make it scan.
[Verse 3]
C
With her phrase book in her silk soft hand
Dm A#
She spoke in riddles while the vodka listened.
F C Dm
I said, Let me look up love, if I might be so bold
F C
She was the nearest thing to Rock and Roll
Dm A#
That side of the velvet curtain
F C Dm
That separates eastern steel from western gold
[Chorus]
G C D
Hey Miss Moscow, what's your story? You needn't speak aloud, just whisper
G D C F
Am I just the closest thing to an Englishman
G C D
You've seen me in your magazines, or maybe on state television
G D C F
I'm your Pepsi-Cola, but you won't take me out the can
F C
She said she was a dancer so she did
[Instrumental]

[Outro]
F C
She said she was a dancer.
Dm A#
If I believed it, it was my business
F C Dm
It felt like a merry dance that I was being led
F C
So I stole one kiss. It was a near miss.
Dm A#
She looked at me like I was Jack the Ripper
F C Dm
She leaned in close. Goodnight, was all she said,
A# C G
So I took myself off to bed
