The Streets of Cairo Harmonica Tab

Verse 1
I will sing you a song,
-4 5 -5 5 5 -4
And it won’t be very long,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
‘Bout a maiden sweet,
-4 5 -5 5 -4
And she never would do wrong,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
Ev’ryone said she was pretty,
-6 -6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 -5
She was not long in the city,
6 6 6 -6 6 -5 -4 5
All alone, oh, what a pity,
-5 -5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
Poor little maid.
-5 5 5 -4

Chorus
She never saw the streets of Cairo,
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
On the Midway she had never strayed,
-5 -6 7 -8 7 -8 7 -6 6
She never saw the kutchy, kutchy,
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
Poor little country maid.
-5 -6 -5 6 -6 -5

Verse 2
She went out one night,
-4 5 -5 5 -4
Did this innocent divine,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
With a nice young man,
-4 5 -5 5 -4
Who invited her to dine,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
Now he’s sorry that he met her,
-6 -6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 -5
And he never will forget her,
6 6 6 -6 6 -5 -4 5
In the future he’ll know better,
-5 -5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
Poor little maid.
-5 5 5 -4

Chorus
She never saw the streets of Cairo,
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
On the Midway she had never strayed,
-5 -6 7 -8 7 -8 7 -6 6
She never saw the kutchy, kutchy,
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
Poor little country maid.
-5 -6 -5 6 -6 -5

Verse 3
She was engaged,
-4 5 -5 5 -4
As a picture for to pose,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
To appear each night,
-4 5 -5 5 -4
In abbreviated clothes,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
All the dudes were in a flurry,
-6 -6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 -5
For to catch her they did hurry,
6 6 6 -6 6 -5 -4 5
One who caught her now is sorry,
-5 -5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
Poor little maid.
-5 5 5 -4

Chorus
She was much fairer far than Trilby,
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
Lots of more men sorry will be,
-5 -6 7 -8 7 -8 7 -6 6
If they don’t try to keep away
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4
from this Poor little country maid.
4 4 -5 -6 -5 6 -6 -5

and there is a slighly differend short version by Ken Hilton, used in
Tim Burton’s shortfilm ‘Vincent’
