Chorus:

[C]Twenty-six [Am7]miles across [Dm7] the [G]sea,
[C]Santa Cata[Am7]lina is a-[F]waitin' for [G]me
[C]Santa Cata[Am7]lina, the [Dm7]island [G]of ro[C]mance,
Ro[Am7]mance, ro[Dm7]mance, ro[G]mance.

[C]Water all a[Am7]round it [Dm7]every[G]where
[C]Tropical [Am7]trees and the [Dm7]salty [G]air,
[C]But for [Am7]me the [Dm7]thing that's a-[G]waitin' [C]there's ro[Dm7]mance. [C] [C7]

Verse 1:

[Dm7]It seems so [G]distant, twenty-[C]six miles a[Am]way,
[F]Restin' in the [G]water se[C]rene
I'd [Dm7]work for any[G]one, [C]even the [Am7]Navy,
[Am7]Who would [Dm+7]float me to my [Dm7]island [G]dream.

[C]Twenty-six [Am7]miles, so [Dm7]near yet [G]far
[C]I'd swim with just some [Am7]water-wings and [Dm7]my gui[G]tar
[C]I could leave the [Am7]wings but I'll [Dm7]need the gui[G]tar for ro[C]mance
Ro[Am7]mance, ro[Dm7]mance, ro[G]mance.

Chorus

Verse 2:

[Dm7]A tropical [G]heaven out [C]the o[Am]cean,
[F]Covered with [G]trees and [C]girls
[Dm7]If I have to [G]swim, I'll [C]do it [Am7]forever
[Am7]Till I'm [Dm+7]gazin' on [Dm7]island [G]pearls.

[C]Forty kilo[Am7]meters in a [Dm7]leaky old [G]boat,
[C]Any old [Am7]thing that'll [Dm7]stay a[G]float
[C]When we ar[Am7]rive we'll [Dm7]all pro[G]mote ro[C]mance,
Ro[Am7]mance, ro[Dm7]mance, ro[G]mance.
