I'm not 100% sure about the verse chords but I have only spent a minute trying to
figure them out so I mean.. come on. However, I think it sounds quite right.
Verse 1:
G
In the midday sun they beat on their drums
D G
When Poppa Joe comes to town
G
With his coconut-rum they can all have fun
D G
They can drink it 'till the sun goes down
Bridge:
C G
Poppa Joe just smiles politely
C G
With the money he takes he might be
C G D
Very rich one day as he hears them say
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/sweet/58401.html ]
Chorus:
G
Poppa rumbo rumbo
C D
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
D
Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
G
Poppa rumbo rumbo
C D
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
D
Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
Poppa rumbo rumbo
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
hey Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
D G
Hey Pop-, Poppa, Poppa Joe
Verse2:
Never see a sad face
in the market place
When Poppa Joe comes around
For his coconut taste
You can see them race
Through the streets
You can hear the sound
Bridge 2:
All of the ladies are laughing gaily
Poppa Joe's still thinking maybe
He'll always hear the people say
Chorus
Have fun, this is a great song. Greatings// Linus
