Chorus

Verse 2

[C]You’re gonna take that ocean trip, No matter, come what [G7]may

[G7]You’ve got your reservations, But you just can’t get a[C]way

[C]Next year, for sure, you’ll see the world, You’ll really [C7]get a[F]round

[F]But how far can you [C]travel, When you’re [G7]six-feet under [C]ground.

Chorus

Verse 3

[C]You never go to nightclubs and, You just don’t care to [G7]dance

[G7]You don’t have time for silly things, Like moonlight and ro[C]mance

[F]But when you kiss a [C]dollar bill, It [G7]doesn’t kiss you [C]back.

My [G7]Lili of the [C]lamplight, My [G7]own Lili Mar[C]lene

You [F] wait where that lantern [C]softly gleams

Your [G7]sweet face seems to [C]haunt my dreams
