The Pogues - Girl from the Wadi Hammamat: chords

Em            C            Em        C
Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
     Em            C    Em    C
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
 Em           C       B  C B C
Lovely as a green parakeet

I awoke alone again
In the desert of my dreams
A fertile oasis I have seen

Chorus:
Em
I cast my voice to the burning winds
Across the dunes Khamsin Khamsin
Bring her to me on desire's wings
                       B C B C
On the burning desert wind

She means the world to me in
a single grain of sand
Bring her camel to this man

Perched on a bough, her tresses hang down
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
She is as sweet as a green parakeet

Chorus

Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
