Lyrics
Oh, I come from a land,
from a (B)faraway place where the (Bb)caravan camels (Am)roam.
Where it's (Cm)flat and immense and the (D)heat is intense.
It's (E7)barbaric, but hey, it's (Am)home.
When the (F7)wind's from the east,
and the (Am)sun's from the west,
and the (F7)sand in the glass is (Esus)right,
(E)come on (Am)down, stop on by,
hop a (B)carpet and fly to (E7)another Arabian (Am)night!
(E5)Follow (Am)me to a place where (B)incredible feats are (Bb)routine ev'ry hour or (Am)so.
Where (Cm)enchantment runs rampant, gets (D)wild in the streets.
Open (E7)Sesame!
Here we (Am)go!
See the (F7)dervishes dance in (Am)ridiculous pants,
then (F7)romance to your heart's (Esus)delight!
(E)Come on (Dm)down, come on in!
Let the magic begin!
It's (Bm7)another Arabian (E)night!
(E)Arabian (Am)nights, (Cm)like Arabian (Am)days
(Cm)more often than (Am)not are (Em7)hotter than (Am)hot...
...in a (F7)lotta good (E)ways.
Arabian (Am)nights (Cm)'neath Arabian (Am)moons...
(Cm)A fool off his (Am)guard could (Em7)fall and fall (Am)hard out (F7)there on the (Am)dunes.
In that (F7)magical place, in that mystical land there's a (Am)genie inside ev'ry jar.
He'll do (F7)all of your bidding.
Your wish, his command.
It's (Am)demeaning, but hey, there you are!
(Em)Unbelievable, (Am)yes, and an (Em)ethical (Am)mess.
(Bb)Nonetheless, no one's (Dm)very (G#dim7)contrite.
You (Am)come here and you've come to a land where any (E)mountain can move.
A land of high intrigue, with (E7)tricky (D)logistics by (Gm)prophets and (G#dim)mystics.
And (Bm7)I've got statistics to (E7)prove:
Arabian (Am)hard out (F7)there on the (A5)dunes.
Arabian nights!
Arabian (Am)nights!
Arabian nights!
Arabian nights!
Arabian nights!
