Lyrics and Chords


Aruba, Jamaica, ooh I want to take ya
Bermuda, Bahama, come on, pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego, baby, why don't we go
Jamaica -

/ C - / F - / C - / F x /

Off the Florida Keys
There's a place called Kokomo
That's where you want to go
To get away from it all

/ C Cmaj7 / Gm F / Fm C / D7 G7 / 

Bodies in the sand
Tropical drink melting in your hand
We'll be falling in love
To the rhythm of a steel drum band, down in Kokomo

{Refrain}
Aruba, Jamaica, ooh I want to take ya
To Bermuda, Bahama, come on, pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego, baby, why don't we go
          Ooh I want to take you
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 Kokomo

/ C - / F - / C - / F / Fm C / Am Dm / G7 C /

Martinique, that Montserrat mystique

We'll put out to sea
And we'll perfect our chemistry
By and by we'll defy
A little bit of gravity

Afternoon delight
Cocktails and moonlit nights
That dreamy look in your eye
Give me a tropical contact high
Way down in Kokomo

{Refrain}

Port au Prince, I wanna catch a glimpse

Everybody knows
A little place like Kokomo
Now if you wanna go
And get away from it all
Go down to Kokomo

{Refrain twice, fade}
