I can be a - a - a... free... Bi-  etc.

If you really want to play that bit. I'm sure someone will have posted the chords for 
"Dance in the Dark".

The trick to playing lady gaga's acoustic songs is to be loose. Don't stick to the words 
and chords. Maybe add a solo in the middle somewhere (you know the chords D, F#m, 
Gbdim/C and G - easy!).

That's what's fun about playing them too. I mean, of course you have to play them a 
little like her, but it's not as though your reading Beethoven from sheet music. You can do 
whatever you want with her songs. :D

Enjoy.
