D
Somebody asked me if I thought I could be
D
Happy living all my days down in Belize
       Em               A
And I thought why not
A          D
I always like it hot

D
So I started listing reasons why I like it there
D
Sunny days of fishing in the salty air
          Em             A
And the stars at night
A               D
There ain't no ambient light

    A
The good life gives you what you need
                         D
And I believe happiness counts a lot
          A
The say successful men get what they want
                    D
Happy men want just what they got
        Em                     A
And the good life for me comes naturally
D
Down in Belize

[Instrumental]

D
Ya the island where we live is small and intertwined

They got their own pace they call it island time
              Em           A
When they say right away
             D
The just may not mean today
          Am
They say what's your hurry man don't worry
                    G
Don't you know San Pedro days go slow
    E7
The island life will get you
E7
Pretty soon it sets you
A                         A7
Down into a slower mode
Em                            A  (hold)
That's when all your tensions go

D
I say the mode of dress is flip-flops and an old t-shirt
D
Cut-offs, straw hat, sunglasses won't hurt
             Em           A
Cause it's a sunny day
          D
I always like it that way

D
People are all friendly oh they love themselves
D
When they get into trouble they help each other out
          Em             A
It's the Christian way
          D
I always like it that way

          A
Yeah the good life gives you what you need
                         D
And I believe happiness counts a lot
      A
Successful men get what they want
                    D
Happy men want just what they got
        Em                     A  (hold)
And the good life for me comes naturally
