Walk Like An Egyptian Chords

[Intro]
B
(8 bars)
 
[Verse 1]
B
All the old paintings on the tombs
 
They do the sand dance, don't you know
 
If they move too quick (oh whey oh)
 
They're falling down like a domino
B
All the bazaar men by the Nile
 
They got the money on a bet
 
Gold crocodiles (oh whey oh)
 
They snap their teeth on your cigarette
E
Foreign types with the hookah pipes say
 
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh
 
[Chorus]
B
Walk like an Egyptian
 
[Instrumental]
B
(8 bars)
 
[Verse 2]
B
The blonde waitresses take their trays
 
They spin around and they cross the floor
 
They've got the moves (oh whey oh)
 
You drop your drink then they bring you more
B
All the school kids so sick of books
 
They like the punk and the metal band
 
When the buzzer rings (oh whey oh)
 
They're walking like an Egyptian
E
All the kids in the marketplace say
 
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh
 
[Chorus]
B
Walk like an Egyptian

B
(Whistling)
 
N.C. (only drums)
Slide your feet up the street, bend your back
 
Shift your arm then you pull it back
 
Life is hard, you know (oh whey oh)
 
So strike a pose on a Cadillac
 
[Verse 3]
B
If you want to find all the cops
 
They're hanging out in the donut shop
 
They sing and dance (oh whey oh)
 
They spin their clubs, cruise down the block
B
All the Japanese with their yen
 
The party boys call the Kremlin
 
And the Chinese know (oh whey oh)
 
They walk the line like Egyptian
E
All the cops in the donut shop say
 
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh
 
[Chorus]
B
Walk like an Egyptian
 
Walk like an Egyptian
 
[Outro]
