[Intro]
C F C G7
[Verse 1]
C F
Far away, down in the tropical sun
C G7
There are people as happy as can be on the run
C F
Down in Costa Rica or San Juan Del Sur
C G7 C
Playing the game, looking for something that is sure
[Verse 2]
C F
The gringos come down in their linen suits
C G7
Trying hard to forget they ever wore leather boots
C F
And the band plays a rumba so soft and low
C G7 C
Underneath the stars with nowhere else to go
[Chorus]
F C
Oh, banana republics, hanging on by the skin of a tooth
F G7
Banana republics, whatever happened to the truth?
C F
With fortunes made in the bubbling swamp of decay
C G7 C
And the old men dying off faster every day
[Interlude]
C F C G7
