Jamaica Farewell Ukulele by Harry Belafonte

Chords with lyrics

D           G
 Down the way where the nights are gay?
    A7           D
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top?
D          G
 I took a trip on a sailing ship?
      A7        D
And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop??

chorus
    D       G
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way?
A7         D
 Won't be back for many a day
  D             G
?My heart is down, my head is turning around?
     A7           D
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town

D-G-A7-D x2

??D         G
Sounds of laughter everywhere?
    A7          D
And the dancing girls swaying to and fro?
D         G
I must declare my heart is there?
      A7         D
Though I've been from Maine to Mexico??

    D        G
??But i'm sad to say I'm on my way?
A7        D
Won't be back for many a day?
  D            G
My heart is down, my head is turning around?
     A7           D
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town??

D-G-A7-D x2

D         G
Down at the market you can hear?

A7              D
Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear?
D         G
'Akey' rice, salt fish are nice?
A7           D
And the rum is fine any time of year??

    D       G
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way?
A7       D
Won't be back for many a day?
  D        G
My heart is down, my head is turning around?
     A7          D
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town

D-G-A7-D x2

D           G
Down the way where the nights are gay
  A7            D
?And the sun shines daily on the mountain top?
D         G
I took a trip on a sailing ship?
      A7         D
And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop

    D       G
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
A7        D
?Won't be back for many a day?
  D             G
My heart is down, my head is turning around?
     A7           D
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town??

D       G
sad to say I'm on my way?
A7         D
Won't be back for many a day
  D             G
?My heart is down, my head is turning around?
     A7          D
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
