I left the hDmouse left the room with the Bbfoxy oAn my backDm  
And my supplies in a Bbmagic Apack
And I fDmollowed the sound of mBbusic
   A          (Stop)
Not up a hill but down to an old wharf shack
InsDmide I heard the tBbrumpets cAall
I saDmlute to the champions Bbon the Awall
And in the jDmazz of squalls and imBbpassioned bArawls she dancedDm  Bb  A  
And the Dmnight she looked so fBbine to mAe
Oh DmI am a man on an BbOdyssAey
And so tDmie me to the masBbt I muAst believe!Dm  Bb  A  
WoBbw didi didi I just had to look
I said wAow didi didi how those hips they shook
Eye Bbpatch tongue ring little black book

Welcome fishies to my hook

And the tDminy chefs they wBbaved their gAiant knivesDm  
And the dark goumas they Bbflicked AdynamitDme
Still I kept the Bbsight of Amy dDmesireBb  A  
And this Dmone things sure I Bbmade no aApologies

She Dmwaves for everyBbbody down Aon the fDmloor
As if to pray to the Bbgods of the AfestivDmal
And there we were in the dBbepths of the Awild belDmowBb  A  
Her fDmace so close I could Bbtaste the dAistant shoDmres

Dm Bb A Dm

I left the house left the room with the foxy on my back

Bb A

And my supplies in a magic pack

Dm Bb

And I followed the sound of music

A (Stop)

Not up a hill but down to an old wharf shack

Dm Bb A

Inside I heard the trumpets call

Dm Bb A

I salute to the champions on the wall

Dm Bb A Dm Bb A

And in the jazz of squalls and impassioned brawls she danced

Dm Bb A

And the night she looked so fine to me

Dm Bb A

Oh I am a man on an Odyssey

Dm Bb A Dm Bb A

And so tie me to the mast I must believe!

Wow didi didi I just had to look

I said wow didi didi how those hips they shook

Eye patch tongue ring little black book

A (Stop)

Welcome fishies to my hook

Dm Bb A

Dm Bb A Dm

And the tiny chefs they waved their giant knives

Bb A Dm

And the dark goumas they flicked dynamite

Bb A Dm Bb A

Still I kept the sight of my desire

Dm Bb A

And this one things sure I made no apologies

Dm Bb A

Lights dimmed but she shone like mythology

Dm Bb A Dm Bb A

And I must admit she felt so alive

Wow didi didi I just had to look

I said wow didi didi how those hips they shook

Eye patch tongue ring little black book

A (Stop)

Welcome fishies to my hook

Dm Bb A

Dm Bb A Dm

She waves for everybody down on the floor

Bb A Dm

As if to pray to the gods of the festival

Bb A Dm Bb A

And there we were in the depths of the wild below

Dm Bb A Dm

Her face so close I could taste the distant shores

Bb A Dm

She whispered wait for the trumpets call

Bb A Dm Bb A

Its not exactly love its to adore

Wow didi didi I just had to look

I said wow didi didi how those hips they shook

Eye patch tongue ring little black book

A (Stop)

Welcome fishies to my hook
