D5           D5      G5        A5
Long, long ago in a land far away
         D5         F#5
A little boy and a girl were so in love
A5                  B5
Standing 'neath the moon above

         Em(9)
He said "Me Japanese Boy, I love you, I do love you
Em(9)                                A5    D5   D5 D5 D5
You Japanese Girl, you love me, please say you do"  [LINK]


D5                 D5          G5         A5
They carved their names on an old cherry tree
                  D5         F#5
Just like they've done in Japan since time began
A5             B5
Then he gently held her hand

          Em(9)
And said "Me Japanese Boy, I love you, I do love you
Em(9)                                 A5    D5   D5 D5 D5
You Japanese Girl, you love me, please say you do"  [LINK]


     G5
In a blue and white kimono
      G5       C#5   F#5
She became his happy bride
          F#5   B5        E5
From that day until this very moment
E5                           A5
  She's been standing by his side


D5            D5           G5        A5
Now they are old and from what I am told
                 D5            F#5
They're still in love just as much as they once were
A5             B5
Every night he kisses her

          Em(9)
And says "Me Japanese Boy, I love you, I do love you"
Em(9)                               A5      D5   Eb5
That is the way that it should be when love is true
Em(9)                                     [ D5 ]
That is the way that it should be for me and you
