                                  "Chinese"
                               by Lily Allen
                              standard tuning
                         verse 1
 F        Fmaj7     Gm
I see you from the sky
 Dm                           Bb             Gm C
And I wonder how long it will take me to get home
 F              Fmaj7              Gm
I wait for an hour or so at the carousel
          Dm            Bb
I have a cigarette to pass the time
               Gm      C
Cause the traffic's hell
  Dm  C   F   Fmaj7
             chorus
 F                     Am
I don't want anything more
                                        Cm
Than to see your face when you open the door
                                                Bb
You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea
                                  F
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
                                   Am
Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk
                                       Cm
And in the afternoon then maybe we'll talk
                                     Bb
I'll be exhausted so I'll probably sleep
                                 F
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
                verse 2
  F           Fmaj7        Gm
You wipe the tears from my eye
          Dm                 Bb            Gm  C
And you say that all that it takes is a phone call
  F  Fmaj7                    Gm
I cry at the thought of being alone and then
    Dm                     Bb           Gm  C
I wonder how long it will take til I'm home again
 Dm  C   F   Fmaj7
               chorus
 F                     Am
I don't want anything more
                                         Cm
Than to see your face when you open the door
                                                Bb
You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea
                                  F
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
                                  Am
Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk
                                       Cm
And in the afternoon then maybe we'll talk
                                    Bb
I'll be exhausted so I'll probably sleep
                                  F
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
              verse 3
 F   Fmaj7              Gm
I know it doesn't seem so fair
           Dm          Bb             Gm
But I'll send you a postcard when I get there
                  chorus
 F                     Am
I don't want anything more
                                         Cm
Than to see your face when you open the door
                                                 Bb
You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea
                                  F
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
                                   Am
Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk
                                       Cm
And in the afternoon then maybe we'll talk
                                     Bb
I'll be exhausted so I'll probably sleep
                                   F
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
(beautiful little song)
