Every town has a secret heart that beats
And every citizen an underground
I set my clock to a bootleg meter and

broken hands spinning round and round

I’m on my way just like every day
to get milk and kerosene
But my reflection in the butcher’s window
isn’t me
I freeze

This is Chinatown
A state of mind
This is Chinatown
It’s just a state of mind

The sky was blue but I wouldn’t know
I was counting cracks in the concrete
I’d memorized them from A to B
A choreography, a part of me

It’s not the future, it’s not the past
It’s not now
The price will double if you try to look
them in the eye
Don’t ask why
‘cause this is Chinatown
a state of mind
This is Chinatown
a state of mind

In Chinatown…

Read my fortune in my MetroCard
You’ll see nothing if you search too hard
Read my fortune in my MetroCard
You’ll see nothing if you search too hard

Chinatown (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Yin yang
A feeling’s evolving through me
Sweet and sour
Is the taste you bring

When i said goodbye, you loved me
When i turned to you, you turned away
When i was so gung-ho
He said ‘let me go?br>
He begged me to stay, stay, stay
If i try to find out what’s on your mind
I’ll find out in chinatown

Chorus:
Chinatown
I don’t know how to read you
Upside down
The signs will all mislead you
Like this town
You’re such a mystery to me
Chinatown
I don’t know how to read you
Upside down
The signs will all mislead you

I’ll track you down
And you’ll go crazy for me
So much smoke i can’t get through to you
Eyes that i can’t see

They stare me down
Here i’m chasin?you
Some crazy fu manchu
And it feels so wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong

When i try to find out what’s on your mind
I’ll find out in chinatown

Chorus

Patrick simmons

You can see from the top of the hill
Tangled streets and the mystery there
Painted lanterns hang from balconies
People running everywhere

Chinatown, with all your dark mystery
Chinatown, chinatown
Your spell is capturing me

Lovely ladies with almond eyes
Dressed in silk and laces
Twilight falls and the shadows move
Silently in secret places

Chinatown, with all your dark mystery
Chinatown, chinatown
Your spell is capturing me

You’ve got me under your spell
You’ve got me under your spell
You’ve got me under your spell
You’ve got me under your spell
Ah, ah
Ah, ah

Chinatown (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Bury a jar of shao-sing
When the girl is born
Surely you know the wine will age
Till shes fully grown
Dont fly into the night
Soon enough the world will end
While the lantern is right

Chorus

I could find a good time girl in chinatown
Chinatown
Dancing in my shoes
See the eastern ladies walking chinatown
Chinatown
Chain me down
Chinatown

Maybe ill drink your jasmine tea
Then ill hurry home
Surely you know the likes of me
Should be left alone
Why they like a me for
Soon enough the world will end
If i answer the door

Chorus

Look at the tall pagoda through
Through your window pane
Watching it by your dragon night
On a cocoa day
Youll discover the white
Orchids in my humble moon
While the lantern is right

Chorus

Chinatown (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Well, the moon is yellow and the people are too
They roll eggs on a bar-b-que
I was feeling kinda cocky with a head full of sake
Down in chinatown

There was dragons flyin’ kites high above the stores
Dead fish heads laying on the floor
I got a sideways hickey from a slant-eyed chickie
Down in chinatown

And it was suddenly, was suddenly, whoa whoa
Yeah, suddenly yeah, suddenly whoa whoa

They smelled fish
We smelled like a meat
Sucking on a soda pop oh so sweet
Got a sugar rush that’d would make ‘em blush
Down in chinatown

Won ton two ton three ton four
Smoke a cigarette throw it on the floor
I killed the pie-faced mothey with a shoeshine clothy
Down in chinatown

It was suddenly, was suddenly, whoa whoa
Yeah, suddenly, yeah, suddenly whoa whoa

The moonie is yellowie and the people are too
They roll eggs on a bar-b-que
I was feeling kinda cocky with head full of saki
Down in chinatown

I got a sideways hickey from a slant-eyed chickie
Down in chinatown
Hey, down in chinatown
Hey, down in chinatown

Chinatown (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Living and dying
In chinatown
Yes they’re living and dying down in old chinatown
You better look around
Man, you don’t stand a chance if you go down in chinatown
Man, you don’t stand a chance if you go down in chinatown

Laughing and crying you know it’s a fact
They’re not laughing they are crying
`cause they won’t be back
Oh no you don’t come back
Not from chinatown
Man, you don’t stand a chance if you go down in chinatown
Man, you don’t stand a chance if you go down in chinatown

Chinatown, it’s a different scene
There are people there, they are so obscene
If you see what i mean
Then they’ve sold you the dream
Down in chinatown
What goes up it must come down

Living and dying
There is no release
Living and dying
There is no relief
There is no beliefs
Not in chinatown
Man, you don’t stand a chance if you go down in chinatown
Man, you don’t stand a chance if you go down in chinatown

Trying to find chinatown
Trying to find chinatown

A hungry man
Can hold out a long time
For some soul food
Good food, whole food
I know i was that man
Maybe sometimes hold out a little too long

I took a right
Then i took a wrong turn
Someone asked me for a quarter
It didn’t seem to fit
He didn’t look too much like a chinaman

Trying to find chinatown
Trying to find chinatown

An old black man
Pushing a shopping trolley
Filled with tin cans
Avoided his glance
I’m nervous and i’m lost
And i don’t see too many restaurants

A guy laid out
With a knife in his back
A cop came along
Told him, move on
Go home and sleep it off
I didn’t know if i should get involved

Trying to find chinatown
Trying to find chinatown
