[Verse]
G Dm
Looking at the world through the sunset in your eyes
G Dm
Travelling the train through clear Moroccan skies
Em
Ducks and pigs and chickens call
A
Animal carpet wall to wall
C D
American ladies five-foot tall in blue
G Dm
Sweeping cobwebs from the edges of my mind
G Dm
had to get away to see what we could find
Em
Hope the days that lie ahead
A
Bring us back to where they've led
C D
Listen not to what's been said to you
[Chorus]
C G Am G
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakech Express
C G Em A
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakech Express
C D G
they’re taking me to Marrakech
All aboard the train all aboard the train
[Bridge]
Bm G
I've been saving all my money just to take you there
E C
I smell the garden in your hair
[Verse]
Take the train from Casablanca going south
Blowing smoke rings from the corners of my mouth
Coloured cottons hang in the air
Charming cobras in the square
Striped djellebas we can wear at home Well, let me hear you now
[Chorus] (x2)
C G Am G
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakech Express
C G Em A
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakech Express
C D G
they’re taking me to Marrakech
All aboard the train all aboard the train
