D7M D9 D D9 C9
Poinciana, your branches speak to me of love
C Bb9 Fdim Fdim D A7
Pale moon is casting shadows from above
A7 D7M D9 D D9 C9
Poinciana, somehow I feel the jungle heat
C Bb9 Fdim D
Within me there grows a rhythmic savage beat
Bridge:
Bb9 Fdim Fdim D
Love is ev'rywhere, its magic perfume fills the air
Bb9 E7 Bb9 Fdim Fdim E7 A7
To and fro you sway, my heart's in time, I've learned to care
A7 D7M D9 D D9 C9
Poinciana, from now until the dawning day
C Bb9 Fdim Fdim D C
I'll learn to love forever, come what may
Instrumental interlude: C Bb9 Fdim D
Bb9 Fdim Fdim D
Love is ev'rywhere, its magic perfume fills the air
Bb9 E7 Bb9 Fdim Fdim E7 A7
To and fro you sway, my heart's in time, I've learned to care
A7 D7M D9 D D9 C9
Poinciana, from now until the dawning day
C Bb9 Fdim Fdim D C
I'll learn to love forever, come what may
