Arabian Nights

     Gm                    Db
Oh, imagine a land, it’s a far away 
place

          Cm             Gm
Where the caravan camels roam

          Bbm                
Where you wander among  every 
 Cm
culture and tongue

        D7                 Gm
It’s chaotic but hey, it’s home

         Eb                      
When the wind's from the east and 
     Gm
the sun's from the west

        Eb                   D7(4)
And the sand in the glass is right

D7      Gm                      
Come on down, stop on by, hop a 
A
carpet and fly

     D7            Gm
To another Arabian night

       Gm                          
As you wind through the streets at 
    A/G
the fabled bazaars

         D7/F#              Gm
With the cardamom-cluttered stalls

         Bbm                       
You can smell every spice while you
C/Bb
 haggle the price

       D7(9-)                 Gm
Of the silks and the satin shawls

        Eb                      Gm
Oh, the music that plays as you move
 through a maze

       Eb                  D7(4)  
In the haze of your pure delight
  D7


        Gm                         
You are caught in a dance, you are 
A
lost in the trance

    D7             Gm
Of another arabian night

        Gm       Bbm               
Arabian nights        like arabian 
Gm  Bbm
days

                Gm       F#m      
More often than not, are hotter 
   Gm
than hot

     Eb7          D7
In a lot of good ways

        Gm       D/F#             
Arabian nights       Like Arabian 
Gm   Bbm
dreams

              Gm      F#m        Gm
This mystical land of magic and sand

   D            Gm
Is more than it seems

          Eb
There's a road that may lead you to 
good or to greed through

     Gm
The power your wishing commands

         Eb
Let the darkness unfold or find 
fortunes untold

           Gm      Eb           
Well, your destiny lies in your 
D7
hands


Only one may enter here... One whose
 worth lies far within

A diamond in the rough!

        Gm     Bbm              
Arabian nights    Like Arabian 
Gm   Bbm
days

                Gm       F#m      
They seem to excite, take off and 
    Gm
take flight

     Eb7         D
To shock and amaze

         Gm       Bbm
Arabian nights
               Gm       Bbm
'Neath Arabian moons
              Gm           Dm7    
A fool of his guard, could fall 
       Gm
and fall hard
    Eb      D7   Gm
Out there on the dunes
