Wheres The Shoorah

Elton John


Tom: Cm

    Eb                 Db   Ab
She grows, she's grown like pampas
            Cm/A                   Bb
Tall in the wind, she's simple and spiteful
          Eb    Db        Ab
She's all girl, woman and mother
             Cm/A      Bb7
She's had my children
    Ab         Bb Eb
And she's been my lover
             Eb               Db      Ab
No no no no, no no, she don't like to fight it
                 Cm/A              Bb
Once you've been bitten, you get excited
            Eb        Db     Ab
Ma-ma-ma-ma-mama, she really likes her
              Cm/A    Bb7  
She comes for coffee
            Eb
And my mama asked me


Bb7    Ab/Bb       Bb          Eb
    So where's the shoorah she sang?
Bb7            Ab/Bb    Bb       Eb
    You know I hear it again, my friend
C                               Fm       Fm7/Eb
Where's the shoorah, she came upon it
                    Ddim
Waiting to sing her back
                   Ab
Cause she likes to sing about
            Cm/A
Where's the shoorah she sang?
         Bb
Over and over and over
                B7  Bb7 Eb
Where's the shoorah she sang?
