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.
