[Intro 1]
[F][Em]

[Verse 1]
Hunting in the [Em]Sea
of [Bm]Japan[Em]
[Am]Ambrose [C]left the tourist trail be[Am]hind him
[Em]So bold with his gun in hi[C]s hand[Bm]
[Am]Of his f[C]urs there was no need to
re[G]mind [F#]him[Em][F#][F]
Tripping over a [Em]Holy [F]Man
Mind that here you don't [Em]choose
your [F]friends
Ambrose asked for a help
[Em]ing hand
He heaved his chest and pointed West
To [Am]where the [Bm]river [C]runs[F][Em]
With Josie back home [C]on his [Bm]mind
[Am]Brushing [C]off the fruit flies
of the [Am]season[Em]
And 'Brosie was surely
[C]struck [Bm]blind[Am]
By a [C]sight that defies [G]human
[F#]reas[Em]on:[G][F#][F]
On an island [Em]of gleaming [F]rock
Jutting up from the [Em]blue lagoon
[F]A ceremonial music[Em] box
And from it flowed a bright new mode
That [Am]made our [Bm]her [C]o swoon
A [G]finer [Am]minor from[Em] China[Am][Em][B][C][Bm][Am][F]
[Am][Em][Dm][Em][F][Em][Dm]
[Am][Em][Dm][Em][F][Em][C][B][Bbm][B]
[F][Em][C][F][Em][F][C][Em]
[Am][Em][C][F][Em]
The World when [C]the traveler returned
[Bbm]As you[Am] kno[C]w played out its bloody
[Am]ro m[Bbm]ances[F#]
[Bbm]But Am[Am]bros[Em]e he
[C]knew what he'd learned
[Am]With his [C]prize in hand he took
his [G]chances[F#][Em][F#]
[F]Soon the sound that delight
[Em]s the ea[C]r
Blended [F]in with [C]the[Em]
[C]armies' roar
[F]When the warriors [Em]strained to hear
This [B]new [Em]bebop this shooting star
Their guns [Am]were [Bm]bullet-[C]full
A A [Am]finer minor from
[Em]China[Em]
[C]A finer minor from China
A finer [Am]minor from Chin[F#]a
