John Denver – Calypso (Ukulele)

        C                                 C6
To sail on a dream, on a crystal blue ocean,

        C7                              C                 Dm/C    
To ride on the crest of a wild raging storm,

         C                               C6               
To work in the service of life and the living,

          C7                   C                              Dm/C
In search of the answers to questions unknown --

              C                                       C6
To be part of the movement and part of the growing,

Cmaj7               C                  Gm7/C
Part of the beginning to understand --

  F                               C      
Aye, Calypso, the places you've been to

            F                           C                   G                C
The things that you've shown us, the stories you tell!

   F                       C       
Aye, Calypso, I sing to your spirit

           F                       C                   G7               C
The men who have served you so long and so well

                  G               F       C
Hi - dee-- ay -- ee -- ooo

              G               F                C         G          F     C
Do-dle-oh-ooo do do do do do do-dle ay-ee

              G          Fsus4      F    C(add D)    C    F/C    C(add D)   F/C
Do-dle-ay-ee

                    C                                     C7
Like the dolphins to guide you, you bring us beside you

       C7                                       C               Dm/C
To light up the darkness and show us the way

           C                                       C6
For though we are strangers in your silent world,

    Cmaj7           C                                       Dm/C
To live on the land we must learn from the sea

             C                           C6
To be true as the tide and free as a wind swell

Cmaj7           C                     Gm7/C
Joyful and loving and letting it be
