 Evil in the air

 When the chinatown patrol came down

 To bring a little order there

 To the laundry's back room

 Was a shanghai saloon

 

 E	  fo7	|b/f#  g#-  |

 Shoot out in chinatown

 E		      fo7	     |b/f#  f# |

 They lined them up against the wall

 E		 fo7		   |b/f#   g#-	  |

 They're gonna turn the place upside down

 B/f#	       e	      |intro 2 ms.

 Till you won't recognize it at all

 

 Streets were wide open

 Till the break of dawn

 'twas frisco in its heyday

 Imported from hong kong

 For about five dollars

 Or one thousand yen

 You could gamble n  ramble in a brothel

 Or take it to the opium den

 

 Shoot out in chinatown

 They nailed up every door

 They're gonna level it to the ground

 And close it up for evermore

 

 Confucius had once stated

 All across the land

 Below the surface, crime and love

 They go hand in hand

 The fire dragons burn

 Buddha's lost his smile

 But swears that we will meet again

 In just a little while

 

 1st chorus

 B/f#		      e 	  add2	 |b5 under  far east  jam fade

 Till you won't recognize it at all
