Caribbean by Hank Snow - Guitar Chords

Version 1
            [Verse 1]
G
Have you ever been down to Haiti
                                D7
When the summer sun was sinking low
D7
There's nothing but romance just ever where you glance
                                G
And the native hearts are all a glow

[Verse 2}
G
But when the Cuban Queen comes upon the scene
                                    C
They all stare like a statue out of stone
                             G
And when they realize what's before their eyes
          D7                  G
The other girls are left all alone


[Verse 3]
G
Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seeing
                                            D7
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm
D7
But from miles away you can see her sway
                                         G
To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms

[Verse 4]
G
Up in a tree so high, way up in the sky
                             D7
Sits a wide-eyed monkey on a limb
D7
He wonders why the people go to so much trouble
                       G
Just to try to be like him

[Verse 5]
d7
He doesn't understand that it's a lady's hand
                              C
That makes a heart feel so sublime
                               G
But before too long he starts singing the song
            D7                G
And then he gets in the Conga line


[Instrumental]

[Verse 6]
G
Columbus searched for spices but he missed the nicest
                 D7
Part of the Caribbean
D7
He didn't see the charms and the open arms
                            G
It was the gold that he was seeing

[Verse 7]
G
Oh but I'm glad he missed the sweetest thing I've kissed
                       C
Cause we're on our honeymoon
                           G
I'm so sorry Chris to talk about you like this
        D7                          G
But you were five-hundred years too soon

{Repeat]
repeat 3,4 and 5] 


[Verse 3]
G
Down in the Caribbean it's not a dream you're seeing
                                            D7
When you get a glimpse of the lady with the charm
D7
But from miles away you can see her sway
                                         G
To the beat of the Cuban Conga line that forms

[Verse 4]
G
Up in a tree so high, way up in the sky
                             D7

                       G

                              C

                               G
But before too long he starts singing the song
            D7                G
And then he gets in the Conga line
