When I got back home I found a message on the door
C# G#
Sweet Regina's gone to China cross-legged on the floor
D# C# G#
Of a burning jet that's smoothly flying:
D# C# G#
Burning airlines give you so much more.
C# G#
How does she intend to live when she's in far Cathay?
C# G#
I somehow can't imagine her just planting rice all day.
D# C# G#
Maybe she will do a bit of spying
D# C# G#
With micro-cameras hidden in her hair.

C# G#
I guess Regina's on the plane, a Newsweek on her knees
C# G#
While miles below her the curlews call from strangely stunted trees.
D# C# G#
The painted sage sits just as though he's flying;
D# C# G#
Regina's jet disturbs his wispy beard.
C# G#
When you reach Kyoto send a postcard if you can,
C# G#
And please convey my fond regards to Chih-Hao's girl Yu-Lan.
D# C# G#
I heard a rumor they were getting married
D# C# G#
But someone left the papers in Japan.
Riff 2x (and over the ending)
G# D# C# G# G# D# C# G# fade out
Left them in Japan, left them in Japan...
