Kara Kara (1971) (video)

F - Bb - F ~

F Bb

1. The wind blows the palms, he was torn from your arms,

F

and he sailed away,

F Bb

the sun burns the sand, you can still feel his hand,

F

as you heard him say

Bb F

in the words of the islands, “I'll return one day.”

F Bb

Kara, Kara, Kimbiay, the stars will guide my on my way,

F C

Kara, Kara, Kara Kimbiay,

F Bb

Kara, Kara wait for me, when I return across the sea,

F C F

Kara, Kara, I'll be back to stay.

F Bb

2. The sun disappears and the sky's not so clear,

F

as he sailed away,

F Bb

the life that you lead's not the life that you need,

F

you still hear her say,

Bb F

your words are the words, you will hear while you're away.

you hope to spend your lives for ever.

Where the sun meets the moon, you'll be together,

together again very soon.

and he's on his way,

as you run through the sand and he touches your hand,
