Intro:  E     E A B  B A E  (repeat) 
 
E         A  B 
IA ORA TE NA-TURA                  
  B   A E         A  B 
E MEA A-ROFA TEIE AO NEI 
E         A  B 
IA ORA TE NA-TURA 
  B   A E         A  B 
E MEA A-ROFA TEIE AO NEI 
 
  E                      D 
I know I don't get there often enough 
       E               D 
But God knows I surely try 
       E             D 
It's a magic kind of medicine 
        A       G            E 
That no doctor     could prescribe 
 
          E                    D 
I used to rule my world from a pay phone 
    E                D 
And ships out on the sea 
        E 
But now times are rough 
         D 
And I got too much stuff 
       A           G           E 
Can't explain  the likes   of me 
      E               A   B          E 
     But there's this one particular harbor 
        A       B      E 
     So far but yet so near 
             A       B            E    A 
     Where I see the days as they fade away 
         A       B      E 
     And finally   disappear 
                                    B 
          But now I think about the good times 
                                E 
          Down in the Caribbean sunshine 
                                   B 
          In my younger days I was so bad 
                                 B   A  E 
          Laughin' about all the fun we had 
                                       B 
          I've seen enough to feel the world spin 
                                          E 
          Mixin' different oceans meetin' cousins 
                                         B 
          Listen to the drummers and the night sounds 
                                         B     A  E 
          Listen to the singers make the world go round
