Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

DmDm             Bb majorBb  A augmentedA       DmDm
I left the house left the room with the foxy on my back
           Bb majorBb  A augmentedA
And my supplies in a magic pack
    DmDm          Bb majorBb
And I followed the sound of music
  A augmentedA     (Stop)
Not up a hill but down to an old wharf shack

  DmDm        Bb majorBb    A augmentedA
Inside I heard the trumpets call
  DmDm          Bb majorBb   A augmentedA
I salute to the champions on the wall
      DmDm          Bb majorBb     A augmentedA          DmDm Bb majorBb A augmentedA
And in the jazz of squalls and impassioned brawls she danced

    DmDm          Bb majorBb   A augmentedA
And the night she looked so fine to me
  DmDm        Bb majorBb  A augmentedA
Oh I am a man on an Odyssey
    DmDm       Bb majorBb  A augmentedA       DmDm Bb majorBb A augmentedA
And so tie me to the mast I must believe!

 Bb majorBb
Wow didi didi I just had to look
    A augmentedA
I said wow didi didi how those hips they shook
  Bb majorBb
Eye patch tongue ring little black book
 A augmentedA (Stop)
Welcome fishies to my hook

DmDm Bb majorBb A augmentedA X4


     DmDm       Bb majorBb     A augmentedA      DmDm
And the tiny chefs they waved their giant knives
            Bb majorBb    A augmentedA   DmDm
And the dark goumas they flicked dynamite
         Bb majorBb   A augmentedA  DmDm   Bb majorBb A augmentedA
Still I kept the sight of my desire

     DmDm        Bb majorBb    A augmentedA
And this one things sure I made no apologies
 DmDm          Bb majorBb     A augmentedA
Lights dimmed but she shone like mythology
  DmDm    Bb majorBb    A augmentedA  DmDm Bb majorBb A augmentedA
And I must admit she felt so alive

 Bb majorBb
Wow didi didi I just had to look
    A augmentedA
I said wow didi didi how those hips they shook
  Bb majorBb
Eye patch tongue ring little black book
 A augmentedA (Stop)
Welcome fishies to my hook

     DmDm Bb majorBb A augmentedA X6

  DmDm       Bb majorBb    A augmentedA    DmDm
She waves for everybody down on the floor
           Bb majorBb     A augmentedA   DmDm
As if to pray to the gods of the festival
             Bb majorBb      A augmentedA    DmDm  Bb majorBb A augmentedA
And there we were in the depths of the wild below

   DmDm          Bb majorBb     A augmentedA     DmDm
Her face so close I could taste the distant shores
       Bb majorBb      A augmentedA     DmDm
She whispered wait for the trumpets call?
        Bb majorBb    A augmentedA  DmDm  Bb majorBb A augmentedA
Its not exactly love its to adore


 Bb majorBb
Wow didi didi I just had to look
    A augmentedA
I said wow didi didi how those hips they shook
  Bb majorBb
Eye patch tongue ring little black book
 A augmentedA (Stop)
Welcome fishies to my hook

DmDm Bb majorBb A augmentedA X6
