Penelope

	  		-Standard Tuning- 

Capo Third Fret 

Intro (No guitar) 
Everyday-ay-ay-ay-ay-ya 

verse 1 
  D      G            D 
Penelope works in the market 
           G        D 
Down in the coconut trees 
               G        D 
She's saving up all her money 
                  G         D 
To go to America across the sea 

verse 2 
She once had an uncle 
He lived in Detroit town 
They got all his post cards 
But his body has never been found 

Pre-Chorus 
        D      G     D 
To this day-ay-ay-ay-ay-ya 
        D      G     D 
To this day-ay-ay-ay-ya 

verse 3 
She got a job as a domestic 
Workin' for the minimum wage 
All her friends back home in Jamaica 
They say, 'You really got it made in the shade' 

verse 4 
But they don't see her sweat and grind 
And her bended on her knees 
She wishes she was back in Jamaica 
Beneath the coconut trees
