Loggins and Messina – Lahaina Chords

I was sitting at a table on an open bay
Waiting for a drink of rum
When I asked my waiter for the time of day
She said “look out there’s a centipede coming your way”

In Lahaina, the sugar cane grow
In Lahaina, the living is slow
In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet
But the centipede he crawls all over your feet

I was laying by the water in the morning sun
Shaded by a coconut tree
When I turned around it was all I could see
There was great big centipede staring at me

In Lahaina, the sugar cane grow
In Lahaina, the living is slow
In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet
But the centipede he crawls all over your feet

Boh doh doh doh boh boh
Boh boh doh doh doh
Boh doh doh doh boh doh
Boh doh doh doh boh boh
Boh boh doh doh doh
Boh doh doh doh boh doh

I had only just a second to decide what to do
While looking at his poisonous fangs
When I said I thought it was a beautiful day
He said “Look out, Mister Howely! I think you’re pushing my leg.”

In Lahaina, the sugar cane grow
In Lahaina, the living is slow
In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet
But the centipede he crawls all over your feet

Boh doh doh doh boh boh
Boh boh doh doh doh
Boh doh doh doh boh doh
Boh doh doh doh boh boh
Boh boh doh doh doh
Boh doh doh doh boh doh
