Intro: D A E A, D A, D E A

A There’s a warm steady breeze D down by the beach
E My Natural Lights peek through the A ice,
D You can smell the aroma of A golden mangos and E coconut A oils,
D Sea-faring tourists go A strollin’ by,
D And I’m thinking ‘bout E riding the A waves,

A Back at the hotel there’s a swim up D bar
E Hey I can cometh’ by land or A sea,
D Big blender whining with A Caribbean flavors, E sweet rum and A the ice,
D This is my private A pirate’s life
D And hey I’m E ridin’ the A waves

D Hey I’m riding the waves, just A drifting away,
E Rockin’ my illegal A smile,
D All I can say is A surrender the booty
E Cause tomorrow comes when A it rolls around
D Right now I’m just A doing fine E ridin’ the A waves

A The air’s ringing with D reggae tones,
E My six strings’ got a life of it’s A own
D Big world’s problems don’t A bother me none E I’ll just have me another one A
D Sun’s shining brighter, A the tides’ rising higher,
D And it’s time E to enhance my A smile

D Hey I’m riding the waves, just A drifting away,
E Rockin’ my illegal A smile,
D All I can say is A surrender the booty
E Cause tomorrow comes when A it rolls around
D Right now I’m just A doing fine E ridin’ the A waves

D Hey I’m riding the waves, just A drifting away,
E Rockin’ my illegal A smile,
D All I can say is A surrender the booty
E Cause tomorrow comes when A it rolls around
D Right now I’m just A doing fine E ridin’ the A waves
