Bridge (or "other part", depending on your musical knowledge & prowess)
I broke the bridge into two levels of complexity. This way, the less
dexterous guitar player can focus on the melody (bass) line before
attempting to add the "fill" notes.
Bridge: type a) this part shows just the promenant melody line)

Lyrics:
Verse: Moving in a bus too close for comfort
Listening to all the gibberish around me
wonder! How much longer can I stand it
Looking for a phone I cannot find
PreChorus: Ohh woe is me
Like a politician in disguise
You know I had to look you in the eyes
and smile
While I crawled another mile in
Chorus: Germany, lost in Germany
Verse: Swimming in an ocean of your feelings
Counting every moment go one by one
Laughing to keep from crying out in anger
Praying that i can make it through this night
PreChorus: Ohh woe is me
It was like a never ending week
But I learned to turn the other cheek
and smile
While I ran for one more mile in
Chorus: Germany, lost in Germany
Germany, lost in Germany
Verse: Shooting at a target that eludes me
Hammering on a nail that just won't go in
Biting on a tongue that wants to speak out
Searching for a light that I can shine
PreChorus: Ohh woe is me
But now I have crossed that borderline
and I wonder if I'll ever find
your hand
`Cause I did not understand in
Chorus: Germany, lost in Germany
Germany, lost in Germany
