[Verse 1]
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
Well the soles on my boots are thin and the road is long
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
I've got some money in my pocket, just enough for my way back home
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
I got the sun on my face and the wind in my back
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
I'm wild at heart but my mind is relaxed
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
And I'm walking on the streets of Marrakech
[Verse 2]
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
Well my phone just got stolen and I don't even give a damn
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
I see some friends drinking sweet tea and eating smoked lamb
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
It's so good to be here in the belly of the beast
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
Where the love drunk lovers and the sinners meet
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
And I'm walking on the streets of Marrakech
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
You know, I've been afraid and I've been confused
Em Am
But now my mind is clear
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
It's good to be anywhere
Em A Bm11/A Am
But it's better to be here
[Verse 3]
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
In his right hand a chicken, in his left hand a knife
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
I saw him cut its throat, I saw him end its life
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
And to tell you the truth I never felt more alive
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
Then after seeing the poor thing die
[Verse 4]
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
I got a coat made out of the finest leather
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
And after smoking that hash I feel as light as a feather
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
And I'm floating on the sweet breath of Marrakech
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
I'm making my way through the beautiful dirt of Marrakech
[Chorus]
