[G] [C] Lie by my [F] side, [Am] in the still [G] of the night, [C]
[F] [C] the morning brings forth [Am] all

[F] [Am] [Dm] Couldn't have made it [G] more plain, [Dm]
when I hear that [G] soft refrain, and I hear [C] you gently sigh.

[G] want to take you where the [C]
flamingos [Em] fly, [C]
[Dm] where [F] all your yonder and [Dm] up, clear [F] blue sky, that's where [C] the flamingos fly.

[Am] and [C] listen for a lark, [Em] [F]
and I will tell you [Dm] a [C] tale.

There's a thing, it's in every, it's [Em] in every [G] sign, and [C#] I'm [Dm]
looking at you, [G]
looking at me, and I'm [C] looking at you, looking at me, looking at you, looking at me, looking at you.
[Em] [C]
Follow the road [F] that will take me, take me back [C]
home, [F]
and carry [C] that load, [F]
where the deer and the provincial [C] angels roam.

[Dm]
Happiness touches [G] me now, [Dm]
oh no word came [G] from and how, but when I hear you gently sigh.
[C] [Em] [F]
I [G] want to take you [C] where the flamingos fly,
[Dm]
where [F] all your yonder [Dm]
and up, clear [F] blue sky, [C] that's where the flamingos fly.
[G] Flamingos fly, [Dm] where all [F] your yonder [Dm] and up, [F] clear blue sky, [C] that's where the [Em] flamingos fly.

You see those flamingos fly.

Look over yonder, [Em] [C]
look over yonder now, [F]

you take [F] it, take it by the ocean.
