[Verse 1]
G G C C
Sometimes when the sun goes down and I'm lost in some other town,
D D G G*
my thoughts may drift away to Manzanillo Bay.
G G C C
And I can see a fisherman, his day's catch lying on the sand,
D D G G*
underneath the palms that sway over Manzanillo Bay.
[Chorus]
C C G G
Now I'm missing your silver moon, black sands and your blue lagoon,
C Am D* D/C* D/B* D/A*
some day I would like to be back next to your shining sea.
C C G G
Drinking rum from a conch shell, caught up in your magic spell,
C C D D*
some day I would like to go back down to Mexico.
[Verse 2]
G G C C
I remember your fields of cane, your warm breezes and jungle rains,
D D G G*
and watching the children play over Manzanillo Bay.
G G C C
And out in your market square the women sing out to sell their wares,
D D G G*
I've got fresh shrimp today from Manzanillo Bay.
[Chorus]
C C G G
Now I'm missing your silver moon, black sands and your blue lagoon,
C Am D* D/C* D/B* D/A*
some day I would like to be back next to your shining sea.
C C G G
Drinking rum from a conch shell, caught up in your magic spell,
C C D D*
some day I would like to go back down to Mexico.
[Verse 3]
G G C C
And under the spell of night the bay reflecting the harbor light,
D D G G*
you can hear the guitar play over Manzanillo Bay.
G G C C
And if you're thinking about romance and you're willing to take a chance,
D D G G*
just pick any small cafe in Manzanillo Bay.
[Chorus]
C C G G
Now I'm missing your silver moon, black sands and your blue lagoon,
C Am D* D/C* D/B* D/A*
some day I would like to be back next to your shining sea.
C C G G
Drinking rum from a conch shell, caught up in your magic spell,
C C D D*
some day I would like to go back down to Mexico.
[Interlude]
G G C C
D D G G
[Outro 1]
G G C C
Sometimes when the sun goes down and I'm lost in some other town,
D D G D
my thoughts may drift away to Manzanillo Bay,
G D G D G D
to Manzanillo Bay, to Manzanillo Bay, to Manzanillo Bay, ...
