         D                                 C
1. I met you on somebody's island,
              G                                           D
    you thought you had known me before,
          D                                   C
    I brought you a crate of papaya,
              G                                   D
    they waited all night by your door.
              D                              C
    You probably wouldn't remember,
         G                            D
    I probably couldn't forget
                D                                 C
    jungle love in the surf in the pouring rain,
     G                                      D
    everything's better when wet.
 
Em           G                             D                              G
    Jungle love, it's drivin' me mad, it's makin' me crazy.
Em           G                             D                              E
    Jungle love, it's drivin' me mad, it's makin' me crazy.
 
           D                              C
2. But lately you live in the jungle,
        G                      D
    I never see you alone,
                   D                          C
    but we need some definite answers,
               G                                       D
    so I thought I would write you a poem.
               D                               C
    The question to everyone's answer
         G                                D
    is usually asked from within,
                 D                                          C
    but the patterns of the rain and the truth they contain,
               G                                  D
    have written my life on your skin.
 
Em           G                             D                              G
    Jungle love, it's drivin' me mad, it's makin' me crazy.
Em           G                             D                             E
    Jungle love, it's drivin' me mad, it's makin' me crazy.

3.     You treat me like I was your ocean,
              G                                        D
    you swim in my blood when it's warm,
           D                           C
    my cycles of circular motion
          G                                          D
    protect you and keep you from harm.
            D                          C
    You live in a world of illusion,
                G                                         D
    where everything's peaches and cream,
           D                               C
    we all face a scarlet conclusion,
                   G                             D
    but we spend our time in a dream.
 
Em           G                             D                              G
    Jungle love, it's drivin' me mad, it's makin' me crazy, crazy.
Em           G                             D                              G
    Jungle love, it's drivin' me mad, it's makin' me crazy, crazy.
Em           G                             D                              G
    Jungle love, it's drivin' me mad, it's makin' me crazy, crazy.
Em           G                             D                             E
    Jungle love, it's drivin' me mad, it's makin' me crazy.
