[Em]In

[Verse 1]
[C]
China, said [B]the moon,
Who [D]brings me nightly [Em]news,
I [C]chance to gaze [F]upon a girl [D]with tiny [B]shoes,
with [Em]pain in her [C]soul.
She [B]stirs [Bm]her [B]fishbowl.
Her [C]four fish, far [B]from free,
are [A]far more free than [Em]she.[C][G][B]
[Em]In
Fez [C]land, searched [B]the moon,
I [D]guided a [Em]young man.
[C]Astride his great white [F]steed
Be[D]side a cara[B]van
Through [Em]long nights [C]he sighed
And [B]longed [Bm]for his bride[B]
He [C]laughed as he had [B]found,
But [A]then, but then, [Em]a cloud.[C][G][B]
[Em]In
Lis[C]bon, c [B]'est la boue,
[D]I kissed a black [Em]amour.
The [C]slave of
[F]Kamuen's, the
[D]Lusiad's
O'Toor
[B]The faithful[Em] slave's pal[C]ms
were [Bm]held out [B]for alms
To [C]pay for food an[B]d rent,
there's [A]now a monu[Em]ment.[C][G][B][Em][C][G][B]
