G Am I could escape this feeling with my china girl G Am I feel a wreck without my little china girl Em G I feel her hearts beating loud as thunder Am B Saw they stars crushing I'm a mess without my little China Girl Wake up in the mornings, where's my little China Girl? I hear her hearts beating loud as thunder I saw the stars crashing down Chorus: G F I feel I'm tragic like I'm Marlon Brando Em D When I look at my china girl G F I could pretend nothing really meant too much Em D When I look at my china girl Em D I stumble into town just like a sacred cow C B Visions of swastikas in my head, plans for everyone Em D C B It's in the white of my eyes My little china girl, you shouldn't mess with me I'll ruin everything you are (you know) I'll give you television, I'll give you eyes of blue I'll give you a man who wants to rule the world Chorus: G F And when I get excited my little china girl says Em D Oh baby, just you shut your mouth Em D C She says sshhh - she says sshhh - B she says G F And when I get excited my little china girl says Oh baby, just you shut your mouth She says sshhh - she says sshhh - she says sshhh - You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  C  D  Em  F  G  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
