| Song: | 6 5 4 4 5 6 7 7
By the old Moulmein Pagoda
7 -8 8 7 7 6 -6
Looking eastward to the sea -6 -7 7 7 -7 7 -6 6
There's a Burma broad a settin' 6 6 -6 6 7 6 -5
And I know she thinks of me 6 5 4 4 5 6 7 7
For the wind is in the palm trees
7 -8 8 7 7 6 -6
And the temple bells they say -6 -7 7 7 -7 7 -6 6
Come you back, you British soldier 5 -5 5 4 4 -4 4
Come you back to Mandalay Come you back to Mandalay
Where the old flotilla lay Can't you hear their paddles chonkin' From Rangoon to Mandalay On the road to Mandalay
Where the flyin' fishes play And the dawn comes up like thunder Out of China 'cross the bay Ship me somewhere east of Suez
Where the best is like the worst And there ain't no Ten Commandments And a cat can raise a thirst 'Cause those crazy bells are callin'
And it's there that I would be By the old Moulmein Pagoda Looking lazy at the sea Looking lazy at the sea Come you back to Mandalay
Where the old flotilla lay Can't you hear their paddles chonkin' From Rangoon to Mandalay On the road to Mandalay
Where the flyin' fishes play And the dawn comes up like thunder Some notes might be wrong. I am new to writing tabs. Cheers. |
