Long time ago, when I was a young boy, I saw that moving youth beyond the mountains, [C]
staring
and I felt a yearning [D] for that great adventure.
So many nights I woke up, out of a dream, a dream of blue seas, [C]

_ Long time ago, when I was a young boy, I saw that moving youth beyond the mountains, [C]
staring
my idol [G] bad and _ _ [Am] grumpy, and I felt a yearning [D] for that great adventure.

_ _ So many nights I woke up, out of a dream, a dream of blue seas, [C] _
white sand, [G] paradise

_ I saw a young girl, a young girl of _ Jamaica, blue lady, my Laika, _ [C]
someday _ [G] I'll return,
wait [Am]
and see.

will always [G] be _ faithful [F] and _ true, _ _ _ [D] yes you.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
And now as I grew older, this burning desire became so strong that I brought me [D] a chicken
to fly with.
_ [A] _ And then I found [B] you, and we fell [E] in eternal love right from [A] the beginning.
_ _ _ Stars falling down from the sleepy lagoon, _ palms swaying under the moon, [D]
and we swimming
out [A] into the calm crystal [Bm] sea.
In that faithful [E] night, I thought to [A] myself, _ I'll do everything I can, save up every dime,
and one day [D] I'll return, [A] come back home to you, and then [Bm] I'll stay forever, [E] _ forever.
