and lay..e..ay underneath the coconut trees.
Pick a day, I bet there is warmer than
where you lay.
You Swim in waterfalls that
God has made.
and watch the Eagles fly all day.
Then there's no way you still worry till your hair turns grey.
life is short my friend, so I say leave the burden let's get away.( repeat 
Chorus)
Then there's no way, you'll still worry,
Till your hair turns grey
Life is short my friend.
so I say. Leave the burden, let's getaway.
Chorus:
well! I like.... to go to Langkawi,
Where the sun....is shining on the sea.
I like...ee.i. to go to Langkawi,
and lay..e..ay underneath the coconut trees.
Bridge:
       Bm
Then live like there's no tomorrow,

             C#m
    for Your life is in your hands.
       Bm
    Happiness, the road we walk,
        C#m
    instead of where we stand.

    I'll pick up my sorrows,
         E7           E7
    & lay them on the sand.

Just When You Thought

Going Langkawi

Gordon Lightfoot - If you could read my mind v2

Some musicians’ look how they sound, but Jimmy Fong is a surprising exception. Listening to his fusion of Latin, Chinese, blues and Islander beats, you’d be forgiven for looking a little confused when a 5’7” Asian man with a beaming smile walks onto the stage. But the mystery is all part of the performance when it comes to Jimmy Fong. 
Growing up in Malaysia in the 1960s, Jimmy spent many a day learning the strings of his acoustic guitar. And that was before he hit the age of double digits. As a child he listened to local tunes with one ear, while tuning the other to Western influences like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, John Denver and of course, the infamous Elvis. 
Years later and Jimmy Fong has made his influencers proud. In 2011, he graced Malaysian television performing his original song – December Skies – with a 50pc live orchestra, which also won in the National Malaysian Songwriting competition. 
Jimmy Fong will do much more than entertain. He’ll take you on a nostalgic journey through song.
