Intro Chords
F  Bb  F

[Verse 1]
     F                           Bb
The wind blows the palms, he was torn from your arms
        F
and he sailed away
     F                          Bb
The sun burns the sand you can still feel his hand,
       F
as you heard him say
        Bb                                   F
in the words of the island: "I'll return one day.

[Chorus]

Kara, Kara, Kara Kimbiay.
Fpo
Kara, Kara wait for me
     Bb
when I return across the sea
F           C                F
Kara, Kara, I'll be back to stay."

[Verse 2]

    F                       Bb
The sun disappears and the sky's not so clear,
       F
as he sailed away.
      F                            Bb
"The life that you lead's not the life that you need,"
     F
you still hear her say.
      Bb                                            F
Your words are the words you will hear while you're away.

           A                       D
There's a light on the sea and the wind blows the trees
          A
and he's on his way,
        A                           D
as you run through the sand and he touches your hand
         A               D
you can hear him say: "Kimbiay, Kimbiay,
