Arabic riff.... A B-scale? Too tough for me to tab out :p
She means the world to me
In a single grain of sand
Bring a camel to this man
Perched on a bough her tresses hang down
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
She is as sweet as a green parakeet
CHORUS
Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
The girl from the Wadi Hammamat
