Jamaica farewell  Don Williams



Jamaica Farewell

[G]Down the way where the [C]nights are gay,
And the [D]sun shines daily on the [G] mountain tops,
I took a trip on a [C] sailing ship,
And when I [D] reached Jamaica I [G] made a stop,

But I'm sad to say that I'm [Am] on my way,
[D7] Won't be back for [G] many a day,
My heart is down my head is [Am] turning around,
I had to [D7] leave a little girl in [G] Kingston town,
Down in the market [C] you can hear,
Ladies [D] cry out as on their [G] heads they bear,
Akai rice salt [C] fish are nice,
And the [D] rum is fine any [G] time of year,
But I'm sad to say that I'm [Am] on my way,
[D7] Won't be back for [G] many a day,
My heart is down my head is [Am] turning around,
I had to [D7] leave a little girl in [G] Kingston town,
Sounds of laughter [C] everywhere,
And the [D] dancing girls sway [G] to and fro',
I must declare my [C] heart is there,
Though I've [D] been from Maine to [G] Mexico,
But I'm sad to say that I'm [Am] on my way,
[D7] Won't be back for [G] many a day,
My heart is down my head is [Am] turning around,
I had to [D7] leave a little girl in [G] Kingston town.
