Verse 2: Talk about her like a queen, dancing in an eastern dream. Oh, she makes me feel like a river that carries me away. Chorus: My woman from Tokyo, she makes me see. My woman from Tokyo, she's so good to me.. Bridge: A7 A7 Gm Gm Gm Gm But I'm at home and I, I just don't belong. G G G F F So far away from the garden we love, G G G F F G G G F F she is what moves in the soul of a dove. G G G F F Soon I shall see just how black was the night, G G G F F G G C C7 C7 C7 when we're alone in the city of light. G D6 G/B C G/D C D6 G G G G Verse 3: Rising from the neon gloom, shining like a crazy moon. Oh, she turns me on like a fire, I get high. Chorus: My woman from Tokyo, she makes me see.

Ending: (repeat main riff and fade) Damn! I just realized that I don't have a record with this song any more so I couldn't check the chords against the recorded version. Anyway, this is what I could recover from my notes from some 15 years ago when I last tried playing that song. Hope this helps... _____ Kim H|glund, [email protected], CS Dept. at U of Copenhagen, Denmark "I've got plenty of common sense. I just choose to ignore it." -- Calvin
