CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: Em  
When sand's close at hand and the sea is touching me
I Dfeel much happier than I've ever felt
And a Emlong time goes by and I'm floating in the sky
CHORUS:
And I Dwish you could be
EmWish you could be
GWish you could be Ahere
And if you're Emfree, follow me, throw a pebble in my sea
The Dsun will wrap you up in a pool of gold
And Emlights in the night, reaching neon waves of sight
CHORUS:
But I Dwish you could be
EmWish you could be
GWish you could be Ahere
The Dsun, the sand, the sea are waiting on the corner
EmTake a Dtrip out Emhere
DHustle, bustle, shove and fuss will greet you
EmIf you Dstay Emthere
I'm withDout a Emcare
Fresh fruit and sea fish are in abundance here
DBut they don't allow the natives at your Emdoor
Selling booze, smuggled from another shore
CHORUS:
And I Dwish you could be
EmWish you could be
GWish you could be Ahere
The Dsun, the sand, the sea are waiting on the corner
EmTake a Dtrip out Emhere
DHustle, bustle, shove and fuss will greet you
EmIf you Dstay Emthere
I'm withDout a Emcare
Fresh fruit and sea fish are in abundance here
DBut they don't allow the natives at your Emdoor
Selling booze, smuggled from another shore
CHORUS:
And I Dwish you could be
EmWish you could be
GWish you could be Ahere

CAPO: 4th Fret

INTRO:

When sand's close at hand and the sea is touching me

I feel much happier than I've ever felt

And a long time goes by and I'm floating in the sky

CHORUS:

And I wish you could be

Wish you could be

G A

Wish you could be here

And if you're free, follow me, throw a pebble in my sea

The sun will wrap you up in a pool of gold

And lights in the night, reaching neon waves of sight

CHORUS:

But I wish you could be

Wish you could be

G A

Wish you could be here

The sun, the sand, the sea are waiting on the corner

Em D Em

Take a trip out here

Hustle, bustle, shove and fuss will greet you

Em D Em

If you stay there

D Em

I'm without a care

Fresh fruit and sea fish are in abundance here

D Em

But they don't allow the natives at your door

Selling booze, smuggled from another shore

CHORUS:

And I wish you could be

Wish you could be

G A

Wish you could be here

The sun, the sand, the sea are waiting on the corner

Em D Em

Take a trip out here

Hustle, bustle, shove and fuss will greet you

Em D Em

If you stay there

D Em

I'm without a care

Fresh fruit and sea fish are in abundance here

D Em

But they don't allow the natives at your door

Selling booze, smuggled from another shore

CHORUS:

And I wish you could be

Wish you could be

G A

Wish you could be here
