CAPO 3.
A
Miami woman so fine and fair
E
I try and try but I can't get anywhere
Bm E
I sail out into the sun
Bm E
Looking for my darling, my only one
Bm E
I sail all day, and when the day is done
She's still the one I want to see
A
I must find that Florida Key
A
Collins Avenue, Fifth Street and Main
E
I walk up and down but it's all in vain
Bm E
My only darling is gone
Bm E
Took everything and put it out on the lawn
Bm E
And Jim came and got it and he gave it to John
It's getting harder and harder to be me
A
I must find that Florida Key
A
Just standing on the curb watching for boats
E
While them boys and girls pass by on their big silver goats
Bm E
I'm getting out while the getting is good
Bm E
In my ship of steel or in my ship of wood
Bm E
One more time I'm gonna do just like I should
See, this could only happen to me
A
I must find that Florida Key
F#m
Need a little sunshine in my beer
G
Thinking 'bout eloping
D
Nothing's locked, never will be
E7
Everything is open
A
There's only one thing that lurks in my mind
E
It's nothing here, nothing I've left behind
Bm E
There's something up front, something I hope to find
Bm E
I'm gonna set sail again tonight
Bm E
Round the horn and in the clear moonlight
Or at least I'm sure it's going to be
A
Soon as I find my Florida Key
