Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][F][D][G][F]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Trouble on the waterfront
Evil in the air
When the [C]Chinatown patrol came down
To [A]bring a little order there
[G]They came in undercover
To the laundry's back room
And [C]right there before their eyes
Was a [A]Shanghai sa[G]loon
[C]Shoot out in [C#dim]Chinatown[G][Em]
[C]They lined them up against
[G]the wall[D][C]
They're gon[C#dim]na turn the
place [G]upside [D]dow[Em]n
[G]Till you won't rec[C]ognize it at all[G]
[Gm]Stre[G]ets were wide open
Till the break of dawn
'Twas [C]Frisco in its heyday
[Bb]Import[A]ed from Hong Kong[G]
For about five dollars
Or one thousand yen
You could [C]gamble and ramble in a brothel
[Bb]Or take [Asus4]it to the opiu[A]m den[G]
[C]Shoot out in Chi[G]natown[Em]
[C]They nailed up every doo[G]r[D][C]
They're gonna [C#dim]level it to [G]the gro[Em]und
[G]And close it up [C]for ever
[G]more[C][G][F][G]
Confucius had once stated
All across the land
[Bm]Below [C]the surface, crime and love
[A]They go hand in hand
[G]The fire dragons burn
Buddha's lost his [Bm]smile
[C]But swears that we will meet [A]again
[G]In [C]jus[C#dim]t[G][Em][C][G]
[D]a l[C]ittle[C#dim] while[G][Em]

[Verse 2]
[G]Till you won't rec[Dsus4]og nize i[C]t at all

[Outro 1]
[G]
