D
Somebody asked me if I thought I could be
D
Happy living all my days down in Belize
Em A
And I thought why not
A D
I always like it hot
D
So I started listing reasons why I like it there
D
Sunny days of fishing in the salty air
Em A
And the stars at night
A D
There ain't no ambient light
A
The good life gives you what you need
D
And I believe happiness counts a lot
A
The say successful men get what they want
D
Happy men want just what they got
Em A
And the good life for me comes naturally
D
Down in Belize
[Instrumental]
Em A A D
D
Ya the island where we live is small and intertwined
They got their own pace they call it island time
Em A
When they say right away
D
The just may not mean today
Am
They say what's your hurry man don't worry
G
Don't you know San Pedro days go slow
E7
The island life will get you
E7
Pretty soon it sets you
A A7
Down into a slower mode
Em A (hold)
That's when all your tensions go
[Instrumental]
D D Em A D
D D Em A D
D
I say the mode of dress is flip-flops and an old t-shirt
D
Cut-offs, straw hat, sunglasses won't hurt
Em A
Cause it's a sunny day
D
I always like it that way
D
People are all friendly oh they love themselves
D
When they get into trouble they help each other out
Em A
It's the Christian way
D
I always like it that way
A
Yeah the good life gives you what you need
D
And I believe happiness counts a lot
A
Successful men get what they want
D
Happy men want just what they got
Em A (hold)
And the good life for me comes naturally
D
Down in Belize
Em A
Doo doo, doo, doo doo, doo
Em D
Doo doo, doo doooooo
Em A
Doo doo, doo, doo doo, doo
A D
Doo doo, doo doooooo
