[Verse]
D G
Lately I've been thinking of a golden island
C D G
Where we drank that sweet, dark rum and listened to that crazy steel band
C D Em
How we danced all night in Frenchtown
D C G C G
Swum all day, just lazing 'round
D G
Maybe we could go there once again
[Verse]
D G
It was good to leave those bad times far behind
C D G
Although I lost a little on the way, I didn't really mind
C D
'Cause what I lost, was long overdue
Em D C G C G
And maybe nothing to lose, you knew
D G
Maybe we could go there once again
[Chorus]
C
'Cause we were living just for the day
G D G
Instead of wishing our lives away
Em D C D D7
We didn't know where we were going and we didn't care
[Instrumental]

One more week of this weather and I'll go insane
C D G
I want to feel the sun on my skin instead of freezing rain
C D
Let's follow the tradewinds on down
Em D C G C
'Til we find the sun
G D G
Maybe we could go there once again
[Chorus]
C
'Cause we were living just for the day
G D G
Instead of wishing our lives away

We didn't know where we were going and we didn't care

Maybe we could go there (maybe we could go)
