[Verse 1]

D                      A
I got a letter from a friend the other morning
D                        A
He say it's hot down in Montego Bay
D                           A

C       D             A
Yeah, yeah, I got to get away

D                         A
I got to take myself a permanent vacation
D                            A
The sky's the limit but my plane won't fly
D                            A
My nose is clean and lordie don't need no sedation
C      D                     A
Yeah, yeah, and that's the reason why

[Chorus]

C                           G
I really need it, really, really need St. Tropez
C                       G
I want a tan where the sun, it never shines
C                           G
I really need it, really, really need St. Tropez
C                           G              B
You best believe it that I go to get away

[Verse 2]

D                         A
I got a sister man she really got a pinhead
D                             A
She think she kinky but she can't get straight
D                         A
She say she livin' but I kinda think she's brain dead
C            D             A
Just excess baggage on a late night freight

[Chorus]

C                           G
I really need it, really, really need St. Tropez
C                       G
I want a tan where the sun, it never shines
C                           G
I really need it, really, really need St. Tropez
C                           G              B
You best believe it that I go to get away
