C
Down at the bay they’re jumping
today
G
There’s a fisherman out on a boat
He throws out his net and hauls
up his catch
G7 C
And heads back to the sandy shore
To a house by the dock with a
door that don’t lock
C7 F
Where there’s music on the radio
G
It won’t take too long he’ll be
singing a song
G7
C
And cooking on an open stove
Chorus 1
F G
No there ain’t such thing as the
blue sky blues
C F
At least they never happen to me
C
F G
It’s never been a mystery what
keeps me coming back
F G
It’s the beaches and boats, the
pirates and poets
C F
That got me hangin’ round down
here
G C
Somewhere south of somewhere
G C
Somewhere south of somewhere
Verse 2
C
In colors so bright and dresses
so tight
G
I see ladies walking down the
street
Lovers romancing, barefoot and
dancing
G7
C
Grooving to a tropic beat
In this sea of confusion I kick
off my shoes and
C7
F
Catch her looking back at me
G
She flashes a smile, we laugh for
a while
G7
C
‘Til she says you wanna dance
with me
Chorus 2
F G
It’s the tropical sun, it’s a
midnight run
C F
To an island or a distant shore
C
F G
That keeps me coming back for
more time and time again
F G
It’s the tacos and rice, the
salsa and spice
C F
The smell of the sea in the air
G C
Somewhere south of somewhere
G C
Somewhere south of somewhere
Bridge
F G
And the palm trees are swaying
like dancers
F G
Moving to the sound of the wind
