Rio by Duran Duran Chords and Lyrics

Intro
                                   
Wow!
Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise.
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it's very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right You catch that mirror way out west
You know you're something special and you look like you're the best.  

Chorus
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand.
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land.
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio Rio dance across the Rio Grande.

I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on T.V.
Two, of a billion stars, it means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you

Chorus

Saxsolo over ||: C#m  A   F#  A :||

Hey now (wow), look at that. Did he really run you down?
At the end of the drive, the lawmen arrive you make me feel  alive   alive   alive 

I'll take my chance 'cause luck is on my side
I tell you something I know what you're thinking
I tell you something, I know what you're thinking
