Bandit Queen

         C              C7
As the Sun is sinking low,

         F                    Fm
And the evening's tucked in tow,

          C          Am      
On the horizon, my true love I 
G            (G7)
see-e-e-e-eee.

             C              C7
She ain't fancy, she ain't fine

           F                   Fm
While her fingers number only nine

            C           Am        
She's the belle of the ball of the
    F     G
 insurgency.



[CHORUS]

         C                   
She's my Bandit Queen, laying 
            Am
beneath the moon

       F                           
In a bandit cave, a blanket laid 
   G
for two

            C                
If I could find a way to your 
                   Am
hideaway by the sea

  F              G7            C
O Bandit Queen, steal away to me.



Am
Somewhere on a mountain, by a starry
 water fountain

        C                     C/B
In an alcove hid by some trees

Am
Amidst a pile of treasure, reclining
 at her leisure,

   F                         G
My ladylove sniffs at the breeze.

F
And sitting up, she adjusts her 
turban

    C
And takes another swig from a bottle
 of bourbon

    D7                              
                  G (off)
And listening to the whistling of 
the train in station

(no chord)
Odds are it will never reach its 
destination.



           C                       
'Cause the Bandit Queen, astride 
             Am
her steed will ride
    F                   G         
Oh, let me be the one to lay 
                            C
within your theivin' arms tonight.
