[Intro 1]
[F][Em]

[Verse 1]
Hunting in the [Bm]Sea of Japan
[Am]Ambrose [Bm]left the [C]tourist [Em]trail [Bm]be hi[Am]nd him
[Em]So bold with his gun i[Bm]n his hand
[Am]Of his f[Bm]urs there wa[C]s no n[Em]eed
to re[F#]mind [Em]him[F#][F]
Tripping over a [Em]Holy [F]Man
Mind that here you don't [Em]choose
your [F]friends
Ambrose asked for a help
[Em]ing hand
[B]He heaved his [Em]chest [D]and pointed [Em]West
To [Am]where the [Bm]river [F]runs[Em]
With Josie back home [Bm]on his mind
[Am]Brushing [Bm]off the f[C]ruit flies
[Bm]of the s[Am]eason[Em]
And 'Brosie was surely [Bm]struck [Am]blind
By a [Bm]sight that [C]defies [Bm]human
[F#]reas[Em]on:[F#][F]
On an island of gleam[Em]ing r[F]ock
Jutting up from [Em]the blue lagoon
[F]A ceremonial music[Em] box
[B]And from it [Em]flowed a [D]bright new [Em]mode
That [Am]made our [Bm]hero [C]swoon
A [Bm]finer [Am]minor from[F#] China[Em][F#][Em][Bm][Am][F]
[Am][Em][Dm][Em][F][Em][Dm][Am]
[Em][Dm][Em][F][Em][Bm][Am][B][F][Em]
[Am][F][Em][F][Em][B][Em][Am][Em][F]
[Em]
The World when [Bm]the traveler returned
[Am]As you k[Bm]now played o[C]ut its
[Em]bloody [Bm]ro ma[Am]nces[Em]
But Ambrose he [Bm]knew what he'd learned
[Am]With his [Em]prize [Bm]in ha[C]nd he
[Bm]took his [F#]chances[Em][F#]
[F]Soon the sound that delight
[Em]s the ea[F]r
Blended in with [Em]the
[F]armies' roar
When the warriors [Em]strained to hear
This [B]new [Em]bebop this shooting star
Their [Am]guns were [Bm]bullet- [C]full
A [Bm]finer [Am]minor from
[F#m]China[Em][F#][Em]
[Bm]A finer minor from China
[Am]A finer minor from China
[F]
