A           D         E   D

Stashed his trash in Ecua-dor

A        D         E   D

Bought a good suit of clothes 

A        D         E   D

Flew on  up to Mexi-co, 

A       D       E   D
 
standin' by the shore 

Bridge: 

D

Waitin' for some mystery man to pay him for his time


But thinkin' 'bout all the money he'd made

                           A 

Couldn't help to ease his mind

            E

Havana daydreamin',

Daddy chopped that sugarcane

One day he fell dead

Jesus had a wanderin' feelin'

 
A     D           E     D

Swimmin' around in his head

Bridge:
 
D

Sailin' on a midnight boat, There were no questions asked
 


Water's so green and the air was so clean

                           A

He just stuck right to his task

 
           E                      D

Havana daydreamin', oh he's just schemin'

 
          A        D      E      D      A     D     E     D

His life away

Ceiling fan stirs the air

 
A     D           E     D

Cigar smoke did swirl

 
A     D           E     D

Fragrance on the pillowcase

And he thinks about the girl

Spillin' wine and sharin' good times, She sure could make him smile

He pays her well, but what the hell, He'll be movin' in a little while

Havana daydreamin', oh he's just dreamin'

His life away
