26 Miles

C   Am   F   G   C

[Chorus]
C          Am      F         G    C            Am        F           G
Twenty-six miles a-cross the sea  San-ta Cat-a-lina is a-waitin' for me
C         Am        F      G     C         Am         F         G
Santa Catalina, the island of    romance,  romance,   romance,  romance


[Verse]
C         Am        F     G      C        Am            F     G
Water all around it every-where, tropical trees and the salty air
        C      Am             F       G        C        F  C  C7
But for me the thing that's a-waitin' there - romance


[Bridge 1]
   Dm       G       C          Am          Dm             G    C
It seems so distant, twenty-six miles away, Restin' in the water serene
    Dm       G       C                       D7                    G
I'd work for anyone, even the Navy Who would float me to my island dream


[Verse]
C          Am        F        G
Twenty-six miles, so near yet far
    C                   Am          F         G
I'd swim with just some water-wings and my guitar
        C         Am             F           G
I could leave the wings but I'll need the guitar for
C         Am         F         G
romance,  romance,   romance,  romance


[Chorus]
C          Am      F         G   C            Am        F           G
Twenty-six miles a-cross the sea  San-ta Cat-a-lina is a-waitin' for me
C         Am        F        G     C         Am         F         G
Santa Catalina, the island of    romance,   romance,   romance,   romance


[Bridge 2]
  Dm       G      C          Am     Dm           G         C
A tropical heaven out in the ocean, Covered with trees and girls
   Dm         G                    C             D7                     G
If I  have to swim, I'll do it forever, Till I'm gazin' on those island pearls


C          Am         F         G     C       Am    F             G
Forty kilometers in a leaky old boat. Any old thing that'll stay afloat
     C     Am         F       G    C        Am       F        G
When we ar-rive we'll all pro-mote romance, romance, romance, romance


[Chorus]
C          Am      F         G    C            Am        F           G
Twenty-six miles a-cross the sea  San-ta Cat-a-lina is a-waitin' for me
C         Am        F        G     C         Am         F         G
Santa Catalina, the island of    romance,   romance,   romance,   romance
