There is a tale that the island people tell

Don't know if it is true but I love it so well

G F#m Em A D Whoa whoa whoa, Jolly Mon sing G F#m Em A D Whoa whoa whoa, make Orion ring
Well he always like to go to the islands near and far He always found his way by Orion, lucky star He'd tell them of their joys, he'd tell them of their woes They'd love to see him come and they'd hate to see him go CHORUS He was makin' his way home on a dark and stormy night When he heard a cry for help and he saw the passing light When he reached the other boat, offered them a hand They said give us all your cargo as they took a pirate stand CHORUS Jolly Mon it's over sing your last song very well They tossed him in the ocean 'cause their hearts were made in hell Came along a dolphin, he said Jolly Mon, hello I've always loved your singin' climb on board, don't let go CHORUS INSTRUMENTAL The night was filled with magic, they bid the sea goodbye They swam into the heavens and they stayed up in the sky And all the island people when they wish upon a star See the dolphin and the Jolly Mon who tell them where they are CHORUS (3x) G F#m Em A D Whoa___________ Whoa__________ D A/C# Bm A Whoa_________ Whoa_________ G F#m Em A D Whoa___________ Jolly Mon sing
