***GIRL FROM THE WADI HAMMAMAT - by Andrew Rankin and Jem Finer
from the album "Waiting For Herb"

Ok, This is as close as I can figure... If anyone else wants to take a shot
and correct or completely tab or redo, be my guest!

Girl From The Wadi Hammamat - as perfomed by The Pogues

Fade in on B

Em Em C repeatedly

Em C Em C
Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
Em C Em C
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
Em C B B C
Lovely as a green parakeet

B B C

Em C Em C
I awake alone again
Em C Em C
In the desert of my dreams
Em C B B C
A fertile oasis I have seen

B B C

CHORUS
Em C Em C Em C Em C
I cast my voice to the burning winds
Em C Em C Em C Em
Across the dunes Khamsin Khamsin
Em C Em C Em C Em C
Bring her to me on desire's wings
Em C B B C
On the burning desert wind
B B C

Arabic riff.... A B-scale? Too tough for me to tab out :p


She means the world to me
In a single grain of sand
Bring a camel to this man
Perched on a bough her tresses hang down
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
She is as sweet as a green parakeet

CHORUS

Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
