I'm not 100% sure about the verse chords but I have only spent a minute trying to
figure them out so I mean.. come on. However, I think it sounds quite right.

Verse 1:
       G      
In the midday sun they beat on their drums
     D                  G
When Poppa Joe comes to town
         G
With his coconut-rum they can all have fun
         D                           G
They can drink it 'till the sun goes down

Bridge:
C              G           
Poppa Joe just smiles politely
C                 G
With the money he takes he might be
C             G                    D
Very rich one day as he hears them say

Chorus:
      G
Poppa rumbo rumbo
C                 D
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
D
Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
      G 
Poppa rumbo rumbo
C                 D
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
D              
Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
Poppa rumbo rumbo
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
hey Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
D                      G
Hey Pop-, Poppa, Poppa Joe

Verse2:

Never see a sad face
in the market place
When Poppa Joe comes around
For his coconut taste
You can see them race
Through the streets
You can hear the sound

Bridge 2:

All of the ladies are laughing gaily
Poppa Joe's still thinking maybe
He'll always hear the people say

Chorus

Have fun, this is a great song. Greatings// Linus
