Enjoy!


Intro

I     V    I    V

Verse

I                         V                         IV     V
Lived on an island down by the sea,

I                                     V      IV   //
Ask yourself "Where else,

                           V
Would an island be?"
                           IV   V   //
Down by the sea.
                           IV   V  //
With you and me.
                           IV   V  //
Love so tenderly.
                                                   
Down by the sea.

Repeat Intro

Verse

When to the market down by the sea.
Ask yourself what I would buy
In a market by the sea
Maybe kiwis
Or orange-ees
Or appl-ees
Or kumquat-ees
But definitely goat's milk.

Bridge


III          VII          
Monkey see, monkey do
        IV                              I
As I go to the market with you.
III          VII
Monkey see, monkey do
            IV                  
As I'm lighting my fire and drinking my goat's milk.

Repeat Intro (and vamp out)
