Song : D
F Bb Cmaj7 Bb F Bb Cmaj7 Bb
Temples reaching to the stars, international bazaars,
Gm A7 Dm Gm A7 Dm
Chummy little Chinese ladies, drinking at those dinky bars.
F Bb Cmaj7 Bb F Bb Cmaj7 Bb
Balmy breezes from the sea, blossoms in the cherry tree,
Gm A7 Dm E7 A7
Everything is so familiar, but where, oh, where is she?

Dm Bb Dm Bb
I've covered every little highway
Dm Bb Dm Bb
And I've been climbing every hill
Dm Fm Dm Bb7
I've been looking high and I've been looking low
Dm Edim7 Dm
Looking for my Shanghai Lil.

Dm Bb Dm Bb
The stars that hang high over Shanghai
Dm Bb Dm Bb
Bring back the memory of a thrill
Dm Fm Dm Bb7
I've been looking high and I've been looking low
Dm Edim7 Dm
Looking for my Shanghai Lil.

Dm7
I learned to love her
G7
The little devil was just a butterfly
Bb
But you'd discover something on the level
Gm A7
Shining in her eye

Dm Bb Dm Bb
Oh, I've been trying to forget her
Dm Bb Dm Bb
But what's the use, I never will
Dm Fm Dm Bb7
I'll be looking high and I'll be looking low
Dm Edim7 Dm
Till I find my Shanghai Lil

F Bb Cmaj7 Bb F Bb Cmaj7 Bb
Anxiously I cast an eye, on each street throughout Shanghai
Gm A7 Dm Gm A7 Dm
Plenty Oriental ladies, beckon as they pass me by

F Bb Cmaj7 Bb
But my mind just can't e rase,
F Bb Cmaj7 Bb
one out standing lovely face
Gm A7 Dm
So, until the day I find out,
E7 A7
I'll never leave this place

Dm Bb Dm Bb
I've covered every little highway
Dm Bb Dm Bb
And I've been climbing every hill
Dm Fm
I've been looking high
Dm Bb7
and I've been looking low
Dm Edim7 Dm
Looking for my Shanghai Lil.

Dm Bb Dm Bb
The stars that hang high over Shanghai
Dm Bb Dm Bb
Bring back the memory of a thrill
Dm Fm
I've been looking high
Dm Bb7
and I've been looking low
Dm Edim7 Dm
Looking for my Shanghai Lil.

Dm7
I learned to love her
G7
The little devil was just a butterfly
Bb
But you'd discover something on the level
Gm A7
Shining in her eye

Dm Bb Dm Bb
Oh, I've been trying to forget her
Dm Bb Dm Bb
But what's the use, I never will
Dm Fm Dm Bb7
I'll be looking high and I'll be looking low
Dm Edim7 Dm
Till I find my Shanghai Lil
