[Verse 1]
Bb                Gm          Eb               Bb
Children by the water banks laughing long and loud
Bb                     Gm           Eb                F
Changbai’s high fine western peaks just beneath the clouds
Bb               Gm      Eb               F
Currents in the water churning in their course
Bb          Gm       Eb        F      Bb
Body of a sea-lion, head just like a horse


[Verse 2]
Bb              Gm                 Eb                Bb
Preacher in the soft brown sand begins to speak his piece
Bb                  Gm          Eb            F
High winds in the treetops low flying winter geese
Bb              Gm         Eb      F
No one taking pictures everybody still
               Bb               Gm             Eb         F     Bb
And then the water sought its course again the way that waters will

[Verse 3]
Bb              Gm           Eb            Bb
No one at the lakeside now, moon up in the sky
Bb                  Gm              Eb              F
Night birds in the dragon spruce, moaning long and high
      Bb              Gm        Eb             F
Backstroking on the surface, moonlight on its face
Bb                   Gm       Eb     F    Bb
Floats the Tianchi Monster, staring into space


[Verse 4]
Bb              Gm          Eb          Bb
Out around the temple now narcissus in bloom
Bb                    Gm             Eb             F
Censors packed with sandalwood send smoke into the room
Bb               Gm          Eb                  F
Children in the sand outside on their hands and knees
Bb                  Gm               Eb       F          Bb
Sketching pictures all day long of stranger things than these
