D Em G D

D Em G A

VERSE:

D G

The mango trees in my home town grow strong and tall

A D

The leaves are green and the ground below don't see the sun at all

D G

And when the heat is on you can cut the air with a razor blade

A D D

So the whole town closes down and moves to Mango Shade

VERSE:

D G

As far as I recall it's always been that way

A D

No one let work interfere with the working day

D G

Still you'd be surprised at the business done and the deals made

A D

And reach our vows spent half a sleep in Mango Shade

CHORUS:

G D

And that slow lane, low gear

Em D

No worries kind of life

Old friends,

D G

Days never end

C A D Em G A

And summertime all year Mango Shade

VERSE:

D G

When I turned seventeen I packed my bags and left

A D

Heading south the city lights and my success

D G

There were winning streaks and losing weeks while dues were paid

A D

Still I never once let my thoughts go back to Mango Shade

CHORUS:

G D

And that slow lane, low gear

Em D

No worries kind of life

Old friends,

D G

Days never end

C A Bm Bm

And summertime all year Mango Shade

BREAK:

G D

Well maybe it's the winters help my memories win the day

G D

Or maybe it's just the years I've been away

G D Em

But tonight for the first time the old town crossed my mind

C A A

And I'm aching to be back to Mango Shade

Mango Shade

CHORUS:

G D

With that slow lane, low gear

Em D

No worries kind of life

Old friends,

D Em

Days never end

C A D

And summertime all year Mango Shade

No worries kind of life

Old friends,

Days never end

And summertime all year Mango Shade
