American ladies five-foot tall in blue

G5                           D5
Sweeping cobwebs from the edges of my mind
G5                   D5
had to get away to see what we could find
E5
Hope the days that lie ahead
A5                               
Bring us back to where they've led
C5                                 D5

Take the train from Casablanca going south
Blowing smoke rings from the corners of my mouth
Coloured cottons hang in the air
Charming cobras in the square
Striped djellebas we can wear at home Well, let me hear you now

Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakech Express
They're taking me to Marrakech
