JAMAICAN FAREWELL
Jimmy Buffett
D G
Down the way where the nights are gay
A7 D
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
G
I took a trip on a sailing ship
A7 D
But when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
Em7
Now I'm sad to say, I'm on my way
A7 D
I won't be back for many a day
Em7
My heart is down my head is turning around
A7 D
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
D G
Sounds of laughter everywhere
A7 D
And the dancing girls sway to and fro
G
I must declare, my heart is there
A7 D
Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
Em7
Now I'm sad to say, I'm on my way
A7 D
I won't be back for many a day
Em7
My heart is down my head is turning around
A7 D
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
D G
Down at the market you can hear
A7 D
Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
G
Ackev rice, salt fish are nice
A7 D
Oh, the rum is fine any time of year
Em7
Now I'm sad to say, I'm on my way
A7 D
I won't be back for many a day
Em7
My heart is down my head is turning around
A7 D
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
D G
Down the way where the nights are gay
A7 D
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
G
I took a trip on a sailing ship
A7 D
But when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
Em7
Now I'm sad to say, I'm on my way
A7 D
I won't be back for many a day
Em7
My heart is down my head is turning around
