So here's a reggae song about a centipede. I'm not even making that up.
It's an easy song by Loggins and Messina and just as long as you remember
to keep a reggae beat, you shouldn't have any problems. If you do have any
issues, just listen to the song and try playing along. Also, when you've
made your final judgement of the tab, please rate and leave a comment.

Intro:
[G] [D7] [G]
Verse 1:
I was [G]sitting at a table on an open bay
Wait[C]ing for drink of rum[G]
When i asked my waiter for the time of day
She said look [D]out there's a centipede coming your way
Chorus:
In laha[G]ina, the sugar kane grow
In laha[D7]ina, the [G]living is slow
In laha[G7]ina, the [C]mangos are sweet
But the [G]centipede he crawls all o[D7]ver your feet[G]
Verse 2:
I was [G]laying by the water in the morning
Sunsha[C]ded by a coconut tree[G]
When i turned around it was all i could see
There was [D]great big centipede staring at me
Chorus:
In laha[G]ina, the sugar kane grow
In laha[D7]ina, the [G]living is slow
In laha[G7]ina, the [C]mangos are sweet
But the [G]centipede he crawls all o[D7]ver your feet[G]
Bridge:
[G]Boh doh doh doh boh boh
Boh boh doh doh doh
[D7]Boh doh doh doh boh doh[G]
Boh doh doh doh boh boh
Boh boh doh doh doh
[D7]Boh doh doh doh boh doh[G]
Verse 3:
I had [G]only just a second to decide what to do
While [C]looking at his poisonous fangs[G]
When i said i thought it was a beautiful day
He said "Look [D]out, Mister Howely! I think you're pushing my leg."
Chorus:
In laha[G]ina, the sugar kane grow
In laha[D7]ina, the [G]living is slow
In laha[G7]ina, the [C]mangos are sweet
But the [G]centipede he crawls all o[D7]ver your feet[G]
Outro:
[G]Boh doh doh doh boh boh
Boh boh doh doh doh
[D7]Boh doh doh doh boh doh[G]
Boh doh doh doh boh boh
Boh boh doh doh doh
[D7]Boh doh doh doh boh doh[G]
Repeat the outro until the end of the song.
