[Verse 1]
Em            C                       A7            C
Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise
Em               C            A7              C
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose its very nice
       Em                      C
With a step to your left and a flick to the right
    A7                C
You catch that mirror way out west
Em              C
You know you're somthing special,
        A7                   C    Em  Em
and you look like you’re the best
 
[Chorus]
E           B           D             A
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
E              B              D              A
Just like that river twisting though a dusty land
E            B                 D                 A
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
E       B         D              A
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
 
Em  C  A7  C  Em  C  A7  C
 
[Verse 2]
Em                   C              A7          C
I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on TV
Em       C       A7       C        Em
Two of a billion stars it means so much to me
C               A7          C
Like a Birthday or a pretty view
Em           C         A7                    C   Em  Em
But then I'm sure that you know its just for you
 
[Chorus]
E           B           D             A
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
E              B              D              A
Just like that river twisting though a dusty land
E            B                 D                 A
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
E       B         D              A
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
 
Em  C  A7  C  Em  C  A7  C
 
[Verse 3]
          C                          A7             C
Hey now.. woo.. look at that did she nearly run you down
       Em                   C
At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive
    A7           C             Em
You make me feel alive, alive, alive
C            A7            C             Em
I'll take my chance, cause luck is on my side or something
  C                          A
I know what you're thinking, I tell you something
  C                          Em  Em
I know what you're thinking
 
[Chorus]
E           B           D             A
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
E              B              D              A
Just like that river twisting though a dusty land
E            B                 D                 A
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
E       B         D              A
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
 
[Last Chorus]
E           B             D            A
Her name is Rio she don't need to understand
E           B                       D      A
And I might find her if I'm looking like I can
E           B         D                A
Oh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land
E              B            D               A
From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande
 
Em  C  A7  C  Em  C  A7  C
 
[Outro]
E                     B
Do do-do do do de-do, Do do-do do do de-do,
D                     A
Do do-do do do de-do, Do do do-do de do
