Banjo Bay Chords & Lyrics - Misc Your Songs - Bill Dickson

[VERSE]

I’m[C] living here in Banjo Bay,
[E7]I don’t have a lot to say,
[Am]Living here day to day for [E7]me.

The [C]sun keeps burning me brown,
[E7]I don’t need a ride into town,
[Am]Got a note from home just yester[E7]day.

The[C] palm trees keep sinking in the sand,
[E7]Come on lend me a hand,
[Am]I need help to gather in the [E7]sun.

I [C]live on coconut and banana,
[E7]The beach my home the sea my veranda,
[Am]I have my stash, papers and a [E7]light.
It’s all [Am]right on [E7]Banjo [Am]Bay.

[BRIDGE]

[Dm]There’s only one thing I’ve [Am]wanted,
[Dm]There’s only one thing that I [Am]need,
[Dm]There’s only one thing that’s [Am]haunting me,
To [E7]have someone, here with [Am]me.
On [E7]Banjo [Am]Bay.

[VERSE]

I [C]went to see the old beach doctor,
[E7]He said, "Son you hadn’t oughta,
[Am]Sleep alone it makes you mean and [E7]old.”

He [C]sent over his only daughter,
[E7]She’s sweet like coconut butter,
[Am]She’s all I need to get me through my [E7]life.
It’s all [Am]right on [E7]Banjo [Am]Bay.

[BRIDGE]

[Dm]There’s only one thing I’ve [Am]wanted,
[Dm]There’s only one thing that I [Am]need,
[Dm]There’s only one thing that’s [Am]haunting me,
To [E7]have someone, here with [Am]me.
On [E7]Banjo [Am]Bay.

[Solo verse]

C, E7, Am, E7. C, E7, Am, E7, Am, E7, Am.

[BRIDGE]

[Dm]There’s only one thing I’ve [Am]wanted,
[Dm]There’s only one thing that I [Am]need,
[Dm]There’s only one thing that’s [Am]haunting me,
To [E7]have someone, here with [Am]me.
On [E7]Banjo [Am]Bay.

[VERSE]

[C]Don’t have a job I don’t have money,
[E7]She calls me man and I call her honey,
[Am]She’s all I need to get me through my [E7]life.

[C]Don’t have a care I don’t have a worry,
[E7]She says man you can die if you hurry,
[Am]She’s all I need to get me through my [E7]life,
It’s all [Am]right, on [E7]Banjo [Am]Bay.

On [E7]Banjo [Am]Bay.
On [E7]Banjo [Am]Bay.
On [E7]Banjo [Am]Bay. . . .
