[Intro]
B
 
[Verse 1]
B
All the old paintings on the tomb
They do the sand dance, don'tcha know?
B
If they move too quick (Oh-way-oh)
They're falling down like a domino
 
B
All the bazaar men by the Nile
They got the money on a bet
B
Gold crocodiles (Oh-way-oh)
They snap their teeth on your cigarette
 
E
Foreign types with their hookah pipes sing:
Way-oh-way-oh-way-ooo-aaa-ooo...
B
Walk like an Egyptian
 
[Verse 2]
B
The blonde waitresses take their trays
They spin around and they cross the floor
B
They've got the moves (Oh-way-oh)
You drop your drink then they bring you more
 
B
All the school kids so sick of books
They like the punk and the metal band
B
When the buzzer rings (Oh-way-oh)
They're walking like an Egyptian
 
E
All the kids in the marketplace say:
Way-oh-way-oh-way-ooo-aaa-ooo...
B
Walk like an Egyptian
 
[Instrumental]
D   B   x3
 
[Verse 3]
B
Slide your feet up the street, bend your back
Shift your arm then you pull it back
B
Life's hard you know (Oh-way-oh)
So strike a pose on a Cadillac
 
B
If you want to find all the cops
They're hanging out in the donut shop
B
They sing and dance (Oh-way-oh)
They spin their clubs, cruise down the block
 
B
All the Japanese with their Yen
The party boys call the Kremlin
B
And the Chinese know (Oh-way-oh)
They walk the line like Egyptians
 
E
All the cops in the donut shop say:
Way-oh-way-oh-way-ooo-aaa-ooo...
 
B
Walk like an Egyptian

It's not call the gremlin, it's call the kremlin.. I guess you'd have to have been alive during the cold war to catch that

Only problem is on instrumental break. Third time it hangs on D instead of going back to B

Nice job! Instead of "Let Sergeant know" it's "Life's hard ya' know" (at least on the live youtube recording)
