Caribbean chords and lyrics - WILLIE NELSON AND HANK SNOW

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]Oh have you ever been down to Haiti
When the summer sun is
sinkin' [D]low
There's nothing but romance
just everywhere you glance
And the native hearts are all [G]aglow

[Verse 2]
But when [G]the Cuban queen
comes upon the scene
They all stare like a statue out [C]of stone
And when they realize what's
be[G]fore their eyes
The other [D]girls are left all [G]alone

[Verse 3]
Down in [G]the Caribbean not a
dream you're seein'
When you get a glimpse of the
lady with [D]the charms
But from miles away you can see her sway
To the beat of the Cuban
conga line [G]that forms

[Verse 4]
Up in a [G]tree so high, oh way up in the sky
Sits a wide eyed monkey on a [D]limb
He wonders why the people
go to so much trouble
Just to try and be like [G]him

[Verse 5]
He doesn't [G]understand that
it's a lady's hand
That makes a heart feel so sub[C]lime
But before too long he starts
[G]to sing their song
Then he [D]gets in the con[G]ga line
[D]

[Verse 6]
Columbus [G]searched for spices
but he missed the nicest
Part of the Caribbean
[D]He didn't see the charms
and the open arms
It was the gold that he was a see[G]in'

[Verse 7]
Oh but I'm [G]glad he missed the sweetest
thing I've kissed
'Cause we're on our honeymoon
[C]And I'm so sorry Chris
to talk [G]about you like this
But you were [D]five hundred years

[Outro 1]
too soon
