[Verse 1]
G Have you ever been down to Haiti D7 When the summer sun was sinking low D7 There's nothing but romance just ever where you glance D7 G And the native hearts are all a glow
[Verse 2]
G But when the Cuban Queen comes upon the scene C They all stare like a statue out of stone G And when they realize what's before their eyes D7 G The other girls are left all alone
[Verse 3]
G Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seeing D7 When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm D7 But from miles away you can see her sway G To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms
[Verse 4]
G Up in a tree so high, way up in the sky D7 Sits a wide-eyed monkey on a limb D7 He wonders why the people go to so much trouble G Just to try to be like him
[Verse 5]
D7 He doesn't understand that it's a lady's hand C That makes a heart feel so sublime G But before too long he starts singing the song D7 G And then he gets in the Conga line
[Instrumental]
[Verse 6]
G Columbus searched for spices but he missed the nicest D7 Part of the Caribbean D7 He didn't see the charms and the open arms G It was the gold that he was seeing
[Verse 7]
G Oh but I'm glad he missed the sweetest thing I've kissed C Cause we're on our honeymoon G I'm so sorry Chris to talk about you like this D7 G But you were five-hundred years too soon
[Verse 3]
G Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seeing D7 When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm D7 But from miles away you can see her sway G To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms
[Verse 4]
G Up in a tree so high, way up in the sky D7 Sits a wide-eyed monkey on a limb D7 He wonders why the people go to so much trouble G Just to try to be like him
[Verse 5]
