                           G                     A                       Bm     A 
I think she was a middle-distance runner...
 F#m                           G                       Bm     A 
        (the translation wasn't clear).

Could be a budding stately hero.

International competition in a year.
 G                                           A                       Bm     A 
She was a good enough reason for a party...
 F#m                                         G                                       Bm     A 
(well, you couldn't keep up on a hard track mile)
 F#m             Em                                 A 
while she ran a perfect circle.
 D                                 A                 G     A4     A  GA

in Budapest...                     hot night in Budapest.
                               G                     A           Bm             A 
We had to cozzy up in the old gymnasium...
 F#m                           G                                                             Bm     A 
dusting off the mandolins and checking on the gear.
 F#m                                                   Em                         G 
She was helping out at the back-stage...

stopping hearts and chilling beer.
 G                           A                                 Bm     A 
Yes, and her legs went on for ever.
 F#m                 G                         Bm     A 
Like staring up at infinity
 F#m             Em                                 A 
through a wisp of cotton panty
 D               A                         G     A4     A  GA 
along a skin of satin sea.
                   Bm  Bm7(11)  Bm7  Bm   G                       A               Bm  Bm7(11)  Bm7  Bm     GA 
in Budapest...                     hot night in Budapest.
 F#m                                 D   A                       Bm           G             A 
You could cut the heat, peel it back with the wrong side of a knife.
 F#m                                                   D 
Feel it blowing from the sidefills.
         A                                 G                                 D 
Feel like you were playing for your life
                               E4

                                                    hot night in Budapest.
SAME PART 1
 F#m                                                 D 
She didn't speak much English language...
   A                                         Bm     G             A 
(she didn't speak much anyway).
 F#m                                                                   D 
She wouldn't make love, but she could make good sandwich
 A                                               G                         Bm 
and she poured sweet wine before we played.
Hey, Budapest, cha, cha, cha. Let's watch her now.
