[Intro]
Em   G      Am                   Em
Ooh ooh ooh oohh    little china girl
G                          Am
I could escape this feeling with my china girl
G                     Am
I feel a wreck without my little china girl
Em                        G
I feel her hearts beating loud as thunder
Am                      B
Saw they stars crushing
G                 Am
Im a mess without my little china girl
G                                  Am
Wake up in the morning, where's my little china girl
Em                       G
I hear her heart beating loud as thunder
Am                      B
Saw they stars crushing out
[Verse]
G                           F
I feel I'm tragic like I'm Marlon Brando
Em                       D
When I look at my china girl
G                       F
I could pretend nothing really meant too much
Em                       D
When I look at my china girl
Em   D   C   B
Em                   D
I stumble into town just like a sacred cow
C                                B
Visions of swastikas in my head, plans for everyone
Em                       D      C      B
It's in the white of my eyes
[Bridge]
Em                    D
My little china girl, you shouldn't mess with me
C                        B
I'll ruin everything you are (you know)
Em                        D
I'll give you television, I'll give you eyes of blue
C                                B
I'll give you a man who wants to rule the world
G                      F
And when I get excited my little china girl says
Em                           D
Oh baby, just you shut your mouth
           Em               D                C                   B
She says sshhh  - she says sshhh - she says sshhh -  she says
Em  D  C   B
G                      F
And when I get excited my little china girl says
Em                           D
Oh baby, just you shut your mouth
           Em               D                C                  B
She says sshhh  - she says sshhh - she says sshhh -  she says
[Outro]
Em   G      Am                   Em
Ooh ooh ooh oohh    little china girl
