Kung Fu Fighting interlude
Oh oh-oh C ohhh... oh oh-oh Dm ohhh a few times

Everybody was C kung-fu fighting... those kids were Dm fast as lightning
In fact it was a C little bit frightening... but they fought with Dm expert timing

They were C funky Chinese men... from Dm funky Chinatown
They were C chopping them up... and they were Dm chopping them down
It's an C ancient Chinese art... and everyDmbody knew their part
From a C feint into a slip... and a G kicking from the hip

Everybody was C kung-fu fighting... those kids were Dm fast as lightning
In fact it was a C little bit frightening... but they fought with Dm expert timing

Oh oh-oh C ohhh... oh oh-oh Dm ohhh a few times

Verse 3 Acappella
Well someCtimes... I go out... by myself... and I look across the Dm water
And I C think of all the things... what you're doing... and in my head I paint a Dm picture

Chorus
'Cos F since I've come on home... well my Em body's been a mess
And I've F missed your ginger hair... and the Em way you like to dress
F Won't you come on over C stop making a fool out of G me
Why won't you come on over ValeCrie? ValeDmrie ValeCrie ValeDmie

Outro Slowed Down
