[Verse 1]
B
Smoky autumn night, stars up in the sky
B B7
I see the sailin’ boats across the bay go by
E
Eucalyptus trees hang above the street
B
And then I turn my head, for you’re approachin’ me
C#m D#m E E/G# E/B F#
Moonlight on the water, fisherman’s daughter, floatin’ in to my room

[Verse 2]
B
First we wash our feet near the immortal shrine
B B7
And then our shadows meet and then we drink the wine
E
I see the hungry clouds up above your face
B
And then the tears roll down, what a bitter taste
C#m D#m E E/G# E/B F#
And then you drift away on a summer’s day where the wildflowers bloom

[Verse 3]
B
I walk across the bridge in the dismal light
B B7
Where all the cars are stripped between the gates of night
E
I see the trembling lion with the lotus flower tail
B
And then I kiss your lips as I lift your veil
C#m D#m E E/G# E/B F#
But you’re gone and then all I seem to recall is the smell of per-fume
