Walk Like An Egyptian
Different Light (1985)

(rythme)

B  x 2

B
All the old paintings on the tombs
                       B/A
They do the sand dance don't you know
If they move too quick (oh hey oh)
They're falling down like a domino

All the bazaar men by the Nile
They got the money on a bet
Gold crocodiles (oh hey oh)
They snap their teeth on your cigarette

  E
  Foreign types with the hookah pipes say (hey oh hey oh, hey oh hey oh)
  B (reste)
  Walk like an Egyptian

B  x 2  (basse: b  f♯ a b  f♯ a b...)

The blonde waitresses take their trays
They spin around and they cross the floor
They've got the moves (oh hey oh)
You drop your drink then they bring you more

All the school kids so sick of books
They like the punk and the metal band
When the buzzer rings (oh hey oh)
They're walking like an Egyptian

  All the kids in the marketplace say (hey oh hey oh, hey oh hey oh)
  Walk like an Egyptian

D  B  x 2  D  Dsus4  w/ solo

B (reste)  w/ couplet sifflé

Slide your feet up the street, bend your back   (a cappella)
Shift your arm then you pull it back
Life is hard you know (oh hey oh)
So strike a pose on a Cadillac

If you want to find all the cops                (rembarque)
They're hanging out in the donut shop
They sing and dance (oh hey oh)
They spin the clubs, cruise down the block

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

  All the cops in the donut shop say (hey oh hey oh, hey oh hey oh)
  Walk like an Egyptian
  Walk like an Egyptian                         (reste)

B  x N  w/ petit solo
