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.

    Jungle love, it's drivin' me mad, it's makin' me crazy, crazy.

    Jungle love, it's drivin' me mad, it's makin' me crazy, crazy.
