Have you ever he[D]ard a love song
That you d[G]idn't under-s[D]tand
Where you m[G]et her in a [D]tea house,
On the Island of J[A]apan
And have you [D]ever travelled over many thousand m[G]iles
To see a pretty G[D]esiha Girl, dressed in [A7]Oriental s[D]tyle.
(Chorus)
They r[G]ead it in the t[D]ealeaves and it's wr[A7]itten in the [D]sand
I [G]found love by the [D]heart full, in a foreign distant l[A7]and
Tell the [D]home folks that I'm happy
With someone that's true, I [G]know
I love a pretty G[D]eisha Girl, where the o[A7]cean breezes [D]blow.
I have s[G]tood and watched the su[D]n rise, from the waters of
the [D]sea
And w[G]ondered how much be[D]auty, in this whole world can there
[A7]be
My d[D]reams are all worth dreamin' and it makes my life
wort[G]hwhile
To [D]see my pretty Geisha Girl, dr[A7]essed in Oriental s[D]tyle.
That you d[G]idn't under-s[D]tand
Where you m[G]et her in a [D]tea house,
On the Island of J[A]apan
And have you [D]ever travelled over many thousand m[G]iles
To see a pretty G[D]esiha Girl, dressed in [A7]Oriental s[D]tyle.
