Arabian Night

Will Smith

Verse 1]

Em F#

Oh, imagine a land,it’s a far away place

Am Em

Where the caravan camels roam

Gm A

Where you wander among Every culture and tongue

B7 Em

It’s chaotic, but hey, it’s home.

[Verse 2]

C Em

When the wind's from the east and the sun's from the west

C7 B7

And the sand in the glass is right

B7 Em F#

Come on down, stop on by, hop a carpet and fly

B7 Em

To another Arabian night

[Verse 3]

Em F#

As you wind through the streets at the fabled bazaars

 Am Em

With the cardamom-cluttered stalls

Gm A

You can smell every spice While you haggle the price

B7 Em

Of the silks and the satin shawls

Am Em

Oh, the music that plays as you move through a maze

C B7

In the haze of your pure delight

Em F#

You are caught in a dance, you are lost in the trance

B7 Em

Of another Arabian night

Chorus 1]

Em Gm Em Gm

Arabian nights Like Arabian days

Em Bm Em

More often than not, are hotter than hot

C7 B

In a lot of good ways

Em Gm Em Gm

Arabian nights Like Arabian dreams

Em Bm7 Em

This mystical land of magic and sand

 C7 B7 Em

Is more than it seems

[Bridge]

C Em

There's a road that may lead you To good or to greed through

Am Em

The power your wishing commands

C Em

Let the darkness unfold or find fortunes untold

B7

Well, your destiny lies in your hands

NC

"Only one may enter here One whose worth lies far within

NC

A diamond in the rough"

[Chorus 2]

Em Gm Em Gm

Arabian nights Like Arabian days

Em Bm Em

They seem to excite, take off and take flight

C7 B

To shock and amaze

 Em Gm Em Gm

Arabian nights 'Neath Arabian moons

Em C Em

A fool off his guard could fall and fall hard

B7 Em C Em

Out there on the dunes
