G                           Am
I could escape this feeling with my China Girl

G                         Am
I feel a wreck without my little China Girl

Em                       G
I feel her heart beating loud as thunder

Am                      B7
Saw they stars crashing

 

G                     Am
I’m a mess without my little China Girl

G                                  Am
Wake up in the mornings where’s my little China Girl

Em                       G
I hear her heart beating loud as thunder

Am                      B7
Saw they stars crashing down 

 

G                        F
I feel a-tragic like I’m Marlon Brando 

Em                      D
When I look at my China Girl

G                       F
I could pretend nothing really meant too much

Em                      D
When I look at my China Girl

 

Em   D   C   B

 

Em                  D
I stumble into town just like a sacred cow

C
Visions of swastikas in my head 

B
Plans for everyone

Em                      D      C   B7
It’s in the white of my eyes

 

Em
My little China Girl 

D
You shouldn’t mess with me

C                        B
I’ll ruin everything you are (you know)

Em
I’ll give you television 

D
I’ll give you eyes of blue

C                                B
I’ll give you a man who wants to rule the world

 

G
And when I get excited 

F
My little China Girl says

Em                          D
Oh baby, just you shut your mouth

 

         Em            D
She says sh-sh-shhh 

         C             B
She says sh-sh-shhh  

 


She Says       She says

        Em  D           C   B   Em   D   C   B

 

G
And when I get excited 

F
My little China Girl says

Em                          D
Oh baby, just you shut your mouth






       

G
And when I get excited 

F
My little China Girl says

Em                          D
Oh baby, just you shut your mouth

 

         Em            D
She says sh-sh-shhh 

         C             B
She says sh-sh-shhh  

 

She Says

        Em  D   C   B

 
 

Em  G       Am                    Em
Oh  oh oh   oh-oh    Little China Girl

Em  G       Am                    Em
Oh  oh oh   oh-oh    Little China Girl

Em  G       Am                    Em
Oh  oh oh   oh-oh    Little China Girl

Em  G       Am                    Em
Oh  oh oh   oh-oh    Little China Girl
