New World Monsoon
ESL - July, 2008 - Nickerie

G G+ G
C B C   B C B C   G G+ G   D7 F# G   F# G
Rain storm from the east
Washed in like a tropical beast
Green iguanas seeking shelter up in a coconut tree
I'm lying in my hammock watching raindrops strike - the river
And nature is aquiver

CHORUS:
B C B C   B C B C   F# G F# G   F# G F# G   D7 F# G
(Monsoon) New World Monsoon 
Comes with a fury but it's gone real soon.
(Monsoon) New World Monsoon
Wash the New World clean but be gone real soon!
Go away monsoon!

Rain storm carries on,
Sounds like African war drums,
Might bash the roof down right on top of your head,
It might just rumble on instead - and leave you
Happy you're not dead.

CHORUS:

Lightning cracks the sky,
And scary thunder sounds near by,
But still you're happy when you hear the sound
Cause you know this one just missed you - and it's gone,
Soon to be done.

CHORUS: (X2)
