Nazareth – Shanghaid In Shanghai (Guitar)

        G                    F 
Standing on a corner in downtown L.A.

C                      G     
Waiting for the man to come along

                             F    
She comes up to me and says "Too bad, too sad"

       C                         G
You know that he's been dead and gone

  L.A. lady, kinda shady

She picked him up and took him home

   G                F
I woke up groggy my sight was smoggy

        C                    G
And I knew that it had been blown

                     F  
Early in the morning sitting in a hotel

 C                                G  
Moscow's looking fine through the wine

              F    
Spaced out I crashed out

         C                  G 
When the K.G.B. came on the line.

C
It's a cold one, bein' sent down

     D
It's gotta be fifty below

  G                       F 
Mama here's a postcard to let you know

         C                        G
I'm in a saltmine and looking for coal

F                  C

Stood on in Tucson

G                                   C      F C 
Ripped off and kicked right out the bed

 G                            F 
Flyin' across the desert from Texas to Tucson

C                         G 
But we're headed for a southern star

                      F 
The captain says it's fine in Havana

      C                      G 
This dude behind me needs a cigar

C
He's a big one, he's got a big gun

       G
I guess we better go along

                   F
Mister we've got a gig in Arizona

       C                      G  
Second billing to the rolling stones

F                  C
