Walking on [A] the Chinese, [F#] walking on the Chinese [E] road
Watching [A] for the droids [F#]
too, [E] for the droids too
Now [B] the sun rising in the [C#m] east
Looking [A] for [B] my [E] daughter's place
The [B] skin, scarlet color [C#m] of me
[A] Let's go find [B] my [C#] daughter's place
[C#m] Did you just get my message?
