Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

 Off the Florida Keys

There's a place called Kokomo

 That's where you wanna go to get away from it all

Bodies in the sand

Tropical drink melting in your hand

 We'll be falling in love to the rhythm of a steel drum band

Way down in Kokomo

Chorus

Aruba, Jamaica, uh I wanna take ya to Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama

 Key Largo, Montego...Baby why don't we go down to Kokomo,

Fm C (*fill-> A sting: 3-2-0

We'll get there fast and then we'll take it slow last note hits at the

following Am chord)

That's where we want to go

 Way down in Kokomo

End-fill:

Verse 2

We'll go out to sea

And perfect our chemistry

 By and by we'll defy a little bit of gravity (uoho)

Afternoon delights

Cocktails and moonlit nights

 That dreamy look in your eye gives me a tropical contact high

Way down in Kokomo

-->(Chorus w/ both fills)

-->(saxo solo) over verse chords (C Cmaj7 C7 F Fm C Dm G)

Verse 3

Everybody knows (everybody knows)

A little place like Kokomo

 Now if you wanna go to get away from it all

go down to Kokomo

-->Chorus x2 (first time acapella, till 'Way down in Kokomo' where guitar comes

in again (no end-fill in here) and continues for the second time):

 ...Way down in Kokomo

Aruba, Jamaica, uh I wanna take ya to Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama

 Key Largo, Montego...Baby why don't we go down to Kokomo,

 We'll get there fast and then we'll take it slow

That's where we want to go

Way down in Ko-ko-mo
