 Intro: G6 Aadd9 Dmaj9 G6 (x2)
 
 G6         Aadd9   
 A boy from Florida,
 Dmaj9               G6       
 Took a trip to the Caribbeans
 G6               Aadd9  
 Umbrella in his daiquiri
 Dmaj9                  G6       
 Sipping, listening to Bob Marley
 
 Guitar melody backing:
 G6 Aadd9 Dmaj9 G6 (x2)
 
 He came to get away
 He came to get over it
 Sunglasses and his radio,
 Chilling, and a head swaying to-and-fro
 Whoa!
 Soul Rebel in stereo
 
 You bring the ocean, I'll bring emotion
 Together we'll make a love potion
 You bring the ocean, I'll bring the motion
 Dancing all night in slow motion
 
 (Guitar melody)
 
 He came to get away,
 He came to get over her
 Laptop and his cell phone,
 Floating in the ocean 'til he's all alone
 Whoa!
 Soul Rebel in stereo
 
 (Chorus)
 
 (Guitar melody)
 
 G               A   
 Don't you worry, boy
 Dmaj7          G           
 Take your time, don't hurry
 G               A   
 Don't you worry, boy
 Dmaj7          A           
 Take your time, don't hurry
 
 (Chorus x2)
 
 (Guitar melody)

 ***********************************************************************************
 
 These are the chords I use to play this song:
 G6: Aadd9: Dmaj9: F#7/C#: Fmaj7/C:

 3-5-5-4-0-0 5-7-7-6-0-0 x-5-4-6-5-0 x-4-4-3-2-0 x-3-3-2-1-0 
 

 E: G6/D:

 0-2-2-1-0-0 x-5-5-4-3-0
 

 
 However, there is an easier way to play the main chords if you find these difficult:
 G6: A (not add9): Dmaj9 (no3):

 3-x-0-0-3-0 x-0-2-2-2-0 x-x-0-2-2-0
