Intro: (bass line down to)(G)(C)
(C) It's cold and rainy
here up north
(F) I think it's time to venture forth
(G) So honey please, take me to (C) Belize
We'll leave the dogs and cats behind
(F) It's only three weeks, they won't mind
(G) Just give them a big squeeze
Then take me to (C) Belize
Chorus: Take me to (F) Belize
It's where I want to (C) go
Take me to (F) Belize
I love the tropics (coral, nightlife, jaguar) (G) so, oh, oh
(F) I hear that they speak English there
(C) We'll walk around without a care
(G) So honey, please take me to (C) Belize
(C) Take the boat taxi to
Cay Cork
(F) Before it's built up like New York
(G) Don't be such a tease
Take me to (C) Belize
(C) We'll walk barefoot on the beach
(F) It's in our economic reach
(G) So what if there's sand fleas
Take me to (C) Belize (repeat chorus)
The snorkeling tour will
be a lark
We'll see sting rays and pet a shark
Off the Cay of Ambergris
Take me to Belize
Then in Dangriga we will barhop
Drink Belikin until we drop
I'm down upon my knees
Take me to Belize (repeat chorus)
To San Ignacio we'll take
a bus
The jungle it was made for us
I love rainforest trees
Take me to Belize
The Guatemalan ruins we may see
I hope the bandits don't rob me
Just leave me my car keys
Then take me to Belize (repeat chorus)
Tag After last Chorus:
(F) I hear the water's safe
to drink
(C) We won't even have to think
(G) So honey, please, take me to (C) Belize
