GEISHA GIRL

Recorded by Hank Locklin

Writer: Lawton Williams

[D] Have you ever heard a love song, that you didn't under-[G] stand

Where you met her in a [D] teahouse, on the Island of [A7] Japan

And [D] have you ever travelled over many thousand [G] miles

To see a pretty [D] Gesiha Girl, dressed in [A7] Oriental [D] style.

CHORUS

They [G] read it in the [D] tealeaves and it's [A7] written in the [D] sand

I [G] found love by the [D] heart full, in a foreign distant [A7] land

Tell the [D] home folks that I'm happy, with someone that's true, I [G]

know

I love a pretty [D] Geisha Girl, where the [A7] ocean breezes [D] blow.

I have stood and watched the sun rise, from the waters of the sea

And wondered how much beauty, in this whole world can there be

My dreams are all worth dreamin' and it makes my life worthwhile

To see my pretty Geisha Girl, dressed in Oriental style.

CHORUS
