Verse 1
D
C
G
Spent some time feelin' inferior
D
standing' in front of my mirror
Combed my hair
C
G
in a thousand ways,
D
but I came out lookin' just the same
Daddy said, son,
C
G
you better see the world
D
I wouldn't blame you if you wanted to leave
But remember one thing,
C
G
don't lose your head
D
to a woman that'll spend your bread
So I got

Verse 2
C
G
you could hide away,
D
If you felt you didn't fit in
French police
C
G
wouldn't give me no peace,
D
they claimed I was a nasty person
Down along the left bank,
C
G
minding my own
D
Was knocked down by a human stampede
Got arrested for inciting
C
G
a peaceful riot,
D
when all I wanted was a cup of tea
G
D
I was accused

I moved on
Verse 3
C
G
I wasn't getting enough
D
Of the things that keep a young man alive
My body stunk,
C
G
but I kept my funk
D
at a time when I was right out of luck
C
G
Getting desperate, indeed I was
D
looking like a tourist attraction
Oh, my dear,
C
G
I better get out of here
D
for the vatican don't give no sanction
G
D
I wasn't ready for that, no, no,
G
D
G
D
I moved right out east, yeah
Verse 4
D
Listen, on the peking ferry
C
G
I was feeling merry,
D
sailing on my way back here
C
G
I fell in love with a slant-eyed lady
D
by the light of an eastern moon
C
G
Shanghai lil never used the pill,
C
D
she claimed that it just ain't natural
She took me up on deck
C
G
and bit my neck
D
Oh, people, I was glad I found her
G
D
Oh, just I was glad I found her
D
G
D

Wait a minute
Verse 5
D
C
G
I firmly believed that I
D
didn't need anyone but me
I sincerely thought
C
G
I was so complete
D
Look how wrong you can be
The women I've known
C
G
I wouldn't let tie my shoe
D
They wouldn't give you the time of day
But the slant-eyed lady
C
G
knocked me off my feet
D
God, I was glad I found her
Verse 6
D
And if they had the words
C
G
I could tell to you
D
To help you on your way down the road
I couldn't quote you no dickens,
C
G
shelley or keats
D
'Cause it's all been said before
Make the best out of the bad,
C
G
D
just laugh it off
You didn't have to come here anyway,
so remember
