Version 1One hit wonder with two chord. I suggest you play the intro only in position V & VII then the entire song in position X & XII. Chords are played with the traditional disco rythm. Hard on the wrist. KUNG-FU FIGHTING (CARL DOUGLAS) D (pos V) x5777x D (pos X) x-x-12-11-10-10 Em (pos V) x7556x Em (pos XII) x-x-14-12-12-12 [Intro] D | Em oh whoa...... | oh whoa......
