Manatee Island

(Eric Stone)

 

 

 

 

Cmaj7          A7b9    Fsus3                     G/G7

On Manatee Island, there aint no power boats

Cmaj7          A7b9    Fsus3                     G/G7

Slow moving Sea Cows are the only thing that floats

Fsus3          B7b9                              Cmaj7

The water is warm and clear and the islands not for sale

Am7         D7                                G                                 Gaug7                              

The only sound you'll hear is the splash of their playful tails

 

 

Cmaj7          A7b9    Fsus3                     G/G7

On Manatee Island, you wont see a no-wake sign

Cmaj7          A7b9    Fsus3                     G/G7

Cause outboards and jetskis are impossible to find

Fsus3          B7b9                              Cmaj7

All palm trees have hammocks and coconuts for snacks

Am7         D7                                G                         Gaug7                              

And there aint no prop scars on a single Manatee's back  

 

 

Lead (Same Chords)

 

 

Cmaj7          A7b9    Fsus3                     G/G7

On Manatee Island, you might see Hemmingway

Cmaj7          A7b9    Fsus3                     G/G7

Hanging out with Picasso, sipping Rum on the Beach all day

Fsus3          B7b9                              Cmaj7

The island will never spoil and the Manatees are safe

Am7         D7                                G                      Gaug7                              

Its always there on my mind on a higher astral plane

 

Hum out with lead.
