Lyrics: C F Stay, oh oh oh stay (x2) Am C Solomon dives for that big dusky pearl Am C F Solomon sighs, he knows he's older than me Am Sleeps with the fishes soon C F Stay (stay), oh oh oh stay (x2) Am C Solomon crawls on the belly of God Am C Solomon falls on his face in love with me. F He grows as old as the sea Am Deep where the fishes are. Stay, oh oh oh stay (x4) C F He lives in the yard, he keeps himself hard C He keeps himself homeless and heartless and hard F He sleeps on the stairs along with the heirs C Of nothing and nothing means no one who cares G C Am But I love him dear and I love him dear C And I've loved him hundreads of thousands of years. C F Stay. Stay (stay with me) oh oh oh stay. C F Stay. Stay (stay with me) oh oh oh stay. C Am It's not time for me to go. (x3) C Stay.
About the artist behind Stay Chords:
In the Arabic language it is known as raqs sharqi (رقص شرقي; literally "oriental dance") or sometimes raqs baladi (رقص بلدي; literally "national" or "folk" dance). The term "raqs sharqi" may have originated in Egypt. In Greece and the Balkans, belly dance is called tsiftetelli (τσιφτετέλι).
The term belly-dance is a creation of Orientalism, and is first attested in English in 1899, translating French danse du ventre.[1]
