[Verse 1]
D
Smoky autumn night, stars up in the sky
D D7
I see the sailin’ boats across the bay go by
G
Eucalyptus trees hang above the street
D
And then I turn my head, for you’re approachin’ me
Em F#m G G/B G/D A
Moonlight on the water, fisherman’s daughter, floatin’ in to my room

D
First we wash our feet near the immortal shrine
D D7
And then our shadows meet and then we drink the wine
G
I see the hungry clouds up above your face
D
And then the tears roll down, what a bitter taste
Em F#m G G/B G/D A
And then you drift away on a summer’s day where the wildflowers bloom

[Verse 3]
D
I walk across the bridge in the dismal light
D D7
Where all the cars are stripped between the gates of night
G
I see the trembling lion with the lotus flower tail
D
And then I kiss your lips as I lift your veil
Em F#m G G/B G/D A
But you’re gone and then all I seem to recall is the smell of per-fume
