Verse 1
(G major) Last night
I (E flatdim) found myself in Bag (E minor) dad (Esus4) once (B minor) again (E minor)
And the (A minor) minarets were icy (D major) blue
against the (E minor) dawn's (D major) green (G major) light
(D minor) No (C major) love I (D major) did not ask just
how (B minor) I came or when (Esus4) (E minor)
I could (A minor) only (E minor) wonder,
(A minor) were you there (D minor) with me to sleep the night?
(G major)

Verse 2
(G major) I walked the streets (E flatdim) of Bagdad
search (E minor) ing (Esus4) for your (B minor) face (E minor)
But the (A minor) ancient city walls (D major) held no
one in their (E minor) last (D major) command
(G major) So (D minor) (G major) (C major) love,
I (D major) called your name with (B minor) in the marketplace (E minor)
And my (A minor) echo woke me back to morn
(D minor) ing's red and golden head (G major)
Verse 3
And oh, (G minor) (C minor) you were (A major) there with my pil (D minor)
low (F major) touching your vel (E flat major) vet hair (C minor)
(D major) And so (Gsus4) as (G minor) I'd slept you'd been (C minor) (F sharpdim) (D major) (C minor) near (A flat major) (C minor) (D major)
(G major) (ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh)

Verse 4
Last night I dreamt (E flatdim) my strange recur
(E minor) ring (D major) dream (B minor) again (E minor)
Where the scarlet (A minor) evening moon still
hovered (D major) over (G major) Bagdad's night
(D minor) Oh (C major) love, I (D major) found myself
alone (B minor) but even then (E minor)
I would sure (A minor) had find your body near
(D minor) me come the morning light (G major)
Verse 5
And oh, (G minor) (E flat major) you were there (A major) with your sandy
(F major) eyes and a sleepy (C minor) stare
(D major) And (Gsus4) though I had dreamt (G minor) you were (C minor) here (D major) (C minor) (D major) (ooh- ooh- ooh- oo
(G major) h- ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh)
(Ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh, ooh- ooh)
So love, (D major) if
Verse 6
(E flatdim)
I tonight should
die (E minor) before the (B minor) dawn (E minor)
And I (A minor) find myself in Bagdad (D major) lost
within an (E minor) empty (D major) sleep (G major)
(D minor) No (C major) love, I (D major) will not feel alone
(B minor) though life has gone (Esus4)
(E minor) For I (A minor) know you'll be beside me (D minor) even as the dark (G major)
