verse 1: 
A                     D              A 
True about my taste; true about my wealth. 
A 
The thing about St. Petersburg: 
       D             A             D A              A C  D 
I was never there myself, so come on. Yeah, come on. 
    A                                     D             A 
Anastasia might have cried all night, I couldn't say myself, 
        D  A               A C  D 
So come on, yeah, come on. 


Pre-Chorus 
  Bm                 F 
I appreciate your courtesy, 
      A              F# 
Your well-learned politesse, 
    Bm                F             A 
But you got yourself into your own mess. 



              Bm               F 
You know the demon's in the design: 
         G              D  A 
A good idea at the time. 
        A   C      D                 D  A 
Seemed like a good idea at the time. 
              A   C      D                 A    D  A 
Yeah, seemed like a good idea at the time. 


verse 2: (Same as verse 1) 
    A                     D             A 
Now how it all went down, only Pilate knows. 
 A                          D                   A 
All I ever asked of him is when the bars would close. 
        D A               A C D 
So come on, yeah, come on. 


Pre-Chorus 
  Bm                 F 
I appreciate your courtesy, 
      A              F# 
Your well-learned politesse, 
    Bm                F             A 
But you got yourself into your own mess. 


              Bm               F 
You know the demon's in the design: 
         G              D  A 
A good idea at the time. 
              A   C      D                 D  A 
Yeah, seemed like a good idea at the time. 
            A   C      D                 F  
Oh, seemed like a good idea at the time.

Ha, yeah, oh, at the time

           A                         D             A 
Now, it's true about my wealth, and true about my taste, 
     A                  
But you don't need no help from me, 
        D               A 
You'll lay yourself to waste. 
So come on. 
Seemed like a good idea at the time.

Seemed like a good idea at the time.
