Verse 1:
A minorAm                 E MajorE
Way down in Jamaica in the tropical heat
                            A minorAm
I met a gal, we took a trip on the train with the rhumba beat
                           E MajorE
Her eyes were bright and shiny, her lips were red and sweet
                                   A minorAm
Her hair was black as the coal they used on the train with the rhumba beat

Chorus:
   A minorAm
Carry me
     E MajorE        A minorAm
Carry my wonderin' heart home

 A minorAm                      E MajorE

You can tell my baby I'm a-comin' home on the train with the rhumba beat
                       E MajorE
Soft arms are awaiting me, my life will be complete
                                  A minorAm
You can tell my baby I'm a-comin' home on the train with the rhumba beat

I've traveled this world all over but none could ever beat
                                  A minorAm
The pretty little gal I met and loved on the train with the rhumba beat
                         E MajorE
Her soft arms are awaiting me, my life will be complete
                                  A minorAm
You can tell my baby I'm a-comin' home on the train with the rhumba beat


Chorus:

Carry me
     E MajorE        A minorAm
Carry my wonderin' heart home
     E MajorE        A minorAm
Carry my wonderin' heart home
     E MajorE        A minorAm
Carry my wonderin' heart home
