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
    
    Chorus x2
