Originally in B, I play in E capo 3
E |
E |
All the old paintings on the tombs |
They do the sand dance don’t you know
If they move too quick (oh ay oh)
They're falling down like a domino
E |
All the bazaar men by the Nile |
They got the money on a bet
Gold crocodiles (oh ay oh)
They snap their teeth on your cigarette
A |
Foreign types with the hookah pipes say |
Way oh ay oh, way oh ay oh
E |
Walk like an Egyptian |
E |
E |
The blonde waitresses take their trays |
They spin around and they cross the floor
They've got the moves (oh ay oh)
You drop your drink then they bring you more
E |
All the school kids so sick of books |
They like the punk and the metal band
When the buzzer rings (oh ay oh)
They're walking like an Egyptian
A |
All the kids in the marketplace say |
Way oh ay oh, way oh ay oh
E |
Walk like an Egyptian |
Solo
G | E |
G | E |
G | G |
With whistling
E |
Drums only
E |
Slide your feet up the street bend your back |
Shift your arm then you pull it back
Life is hard you know (oh ay oh)
So strike a pose on a Cadillac
Band enters
E |
If you want to find all the cops |
They’re hanging out in the donut shop
They sing and dance (oh ay oh)
They spin the club, cruise down the block
E |
All the Japanese with their yen |
The party boys call the Kremlin
And the Chinese know (oh ay oh)
They walk the line like Egyptian
A |
All the cops in the doughnut shop say |
Ay oh ay oh, ay oh ay oh
Way oh ay oh, way oh ay oh
E |
Walk like an Egyptian |
E |
Walk like an Egyptian |
