China girl, I met you on the sea sand.  
                          D
You touched me with your cool hand.
                       A
Your perfume's in the wind.
       A6                        F#m                             D
China girl, your daddy tells you white lies to keep you from my blue eyes.
                  A
To know me is no sin.


              D                A           D                  A
And I won't break you, China girl, if you take me into your world.

It's been my good fortune to find you, China girl.


        A6                         F#m
Stolen flowers are sweetest in the mornin'.
                    D                                A
The Eastern sun is dawnin'.  Your silk's against my skin.
       A6                   F#m
China girl, take me to your jasmine place.
                   D                               A
Cool me with your subtle grace.  To know me is no sin.


              D               A            D                 A
And I won't break you, China girl, if you take me into your world.
