Surfin' Safari

Words & Music:

Brian Wilson (The Beach Boys)

 

A                     G

Let's go surfin' now, everybody's learnin' how,

E7                    A

Come on a safari with me.

 

D                             G

Early in the mornin' we'll be startin' out,

A7                          D

Some honeys will be comin' along.

D                                   G

We're loadin' up our woody with the boards inside

A7                          D

And headin' out singin' our song.

 

CHORUS:

D

Come on baby, wait and see, yes, I'm gonna take you surfin' with me.

G                                 D

Lonesome baby, wait and see, yes, I'm gonna take you surfin' with me.

A                     G

Let's go surfin' now, everybody's learnin' how,

E7                    A

Come on a safari with me.

 

In Huntington and Malibu, they're shootin' the pier.

In Rincon, they're walkin' the nose.

We're goin' on safari to the islands this year.

So, if you're comin', get ready to go.

 

CHORUS:

 

They're anglin' in Laguna and Cerro Azul.

They're kickin' out in Doheney, too.

Surfin's runnin' wild, it's gettin' bigger every day

From Hawaii to the shores of Peru.

 

CHORUS:
