***GIRL FROM THE WADI HAMMAMAT - by Andrew Rankin and Jem Finer
from the album "Waiting For Herb"

Ok, This is as close as I can figure... If anyone else wants to take a shot 
and correct or completely tab or redo, be my guest!

Girl From The Wadi Hammamat - as perfomed by The Pogues

Fade in on B

Em Em C repeatedly

Em           C            Em        C
Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
    Em            C    Em      C
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
Em          C         B B C 
Lovely as a green parakeet

B B C

Em     C     Em    C               
    I awake alone again
Em        C            Em      C
   In the desert of my dreams
  Em      C            B B C
A fertile oasis I have seen

B B C

CHORUS 
Em        C  Em        C   Em    C Em  C 
   I cast my voice to the burning winds
Em      C    Em     C     Em  C     Em 
Across the dunes Khamsin Khamsin
Em    C    Em        C Em C    Em C
Bring her to me on desire's wings
Em      C                    B B C
On the burning desert wind
B B C

Arabic riff.... A B-scale? Too tough for me to tab out :p    


She means the world to me
In a single grain of sand
Bring a camel to this man
Perched on a bough her tresses hang down
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
She is as sweet as a green parakeet

CHORUS 

Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
