Dm
Winter's cityside 
Bb
Crystal bits of snowflakes 
C				Am
All around my head and in the wind 

Dm
I had no illusions 
Bb
That I'd ever find a glimpse 
   C			      Am	
Of summer's heatwaves in your eyes 


Dm      Bb              C  
You did what you did to me 
         Am         Bb 
Now it's history, I see 
          G               Am
Here's my comeback on the road again 

Dm          Bb                Am
Things will happen while they can 
       Am               Bb 
I will wait here for my man tonight 
     G                Am 
It's easy when you're big in Japan 


CHORUS:
                       Dm    Bb 
Aah when you're big in Japan-tonight... 
       C      Am   
Big in Japan-be-tight... 
       Bb              G                Am 
Big in Japan...ooh the eastern sea's so blue 
       Dm     Bb 
Big in Japan-alright 
                C              Am 
Pay! - Then I'll sleep by your side 
           Bb               G      Am 
Things are easy when you're big in Japan 

Oh when you're big in Japan 


Dm                     Bb 
Neon on my naked skin, passing silhouettes 
   C                        Am
Of strange illuminated mannequins 

Dm
Shall I stay here at the zoo 
Bb                           C 
Or should I go and change my point of view 
               Am
For other ugly scenes 


Dm      Bb              C  
You did what you did to me 
         Am       Bb  G  Am
Now it's history, I.... see

Dm          Bb                Am
Things will happen while they can 
       Am               Bb 
I will wait here for my man tonight 
     G                Am 
It's easy when you're big in Japan 


REPEAT CHORUS
