CARIBBEAN BLUES
Rick Lally Copyright 1987

G Cmaj7 G Em - G Cmaj7 G Em
G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7
Well I'm making my way to the coast of Caribbean
G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7
waters that have seen the shifting of continents.
G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7
The tropic of cancer is rising before me
Am G Am G
and at 90 degrees, what do I see?
Am G G Cmaj7 G Em - G Cmaj7 G Em
Caribbean blues are shinin' on me

G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7
I'll run through the ruins chasing the Mayan kings
G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7
they'll tell me what has been and I tell them what could be.
G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7
It's a longitude attitude, a place for discovery.
Am G Am G
Then my soul fly’s to sea
Am G Am G G Cmaj7 G Em - G Cmaj7 G Em
now how can it be Caribbean blues are shinin' on me

Solo

G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7
A tale of the ocean is rippling in the tide
G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7
the currents run deep as the water moves by.
G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7
and across the sea is a pattern of blue
Am G Am G
come along with me. now what do you see
Am G G Cmaj7 G Em - G Cmaj7 G E
Caribbean blues are shinin' on me.
G Cmaj7 G Em
blue, blue, blue
G Cmaj7 G Em
blue, blue blues
G
Caribbean Blues.
