KOKOMO by The Beach Boys
by Marla Hitunen
(acapella)
Aruba, Jamaica, ooh I wanna take ya, Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego, baby why don't we go, Jamaica...
Off the Florida [C]Keys[Em]
[Gm]There's a place called [F]Kokomo[Fm]
That's where you [C]wanna go to get [Dm]away from it all[G]
Bodies in the sand[Em]
[Gm]Tropical drink melting in your [F]hand[Fm]
We'll be falling in [C]love to the rhythm of a [Dm]steel drum band[G]
Down in Koko...
Chorus
[C]Aruba, Jamaica, ooh I wanna take ya to [F]Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama
Key [C]Largo, Montego...ooh I wanna take her down to [F]Kokomo,
We'll [Fm]get there fast and then we'll [C]take slow
[Am]That's where we [F]wanna go[G]
Way down in [C]Koko...Martinique, that Monserate mystique
[C]We'll put out to sea[Em]
And we'll perfect our [F]chemistry[Fm]
By and by we'll [C]defy a little bit of [Dm]gravity[G]
[C]Afternoon delight[Em]
Cocktails and [F]moonlit nights[Fm]
That dreamy look in your [C]eye give me a tropical [Dm]contact high[G]
Way down in Koko...
Chorus
[C]Port Au Prince, I wanna catch a glimpse
Instrumental
[C]Everybody knows[Em]
A little place like [F]Kokomo[Fm]
Now if you [C]wanna go and get [Dm]away from it all[G]
go down to Koko...
(chorus to fade out)
