Aruba, Jamaica, ooh I wanna take ya
Bring it up, Bahama, come on baby
[N] Uh-huh, Quilago, Montego, baby
Why don't we go [C] to Jamaica House in Florida Key?
[C] [Gm] There's a place [F] called Kokomo
That's where [C] you wanna go
Take [D] it away from it [G] all
Bodies in the sand
[Gm] Tropical drink [F] mergin' in your [Fm] hand
We'll be fallin' [C] in love
To the rhythm [D] of a smooth neck
[G] Down in [Cm] Kokomo
[C] Aruba, Jamaica, ooh I wanna take ya

[Fm] We'll get there fast and [C] then we'll take it slow
[Am] That's where [Dm] we wanna go
[G] We gotta go
[C] We'll take that Montserrat Station
And we'll put out to sea
[Gm] And we'll perfect [F] our chemistry
[Fm] And by and by we'll [C] provide
A little [G] bit of gravity
[D]
[G] [C] Afternoon delight
[Gm]
[F] Cocktails and moonlit nights
[Fm] That dreamy look in [C] your eye
Give me a [D] tropical contact high
[G] Way down in [C] Kokomo
Aruba, Jamaica, ooh I wanna take ya

Why don't we go [F] to Kokomo?
