Jamaica was the lovely one I played her well
LAm LAm7 RE SOL RE
As we lay in the tall grass where the shadows fell
SOL DO DO/SI DO/LA
Hiding from the children so they would not tell
LAm LAm7 RE
We would stay there untill her sister rang the evening bell

Jamaica say you will help me find a way to fill these empty hours
SOL SIm MIm MIm/RE RE DO DO/SI DO/LA SOL/SI RE
Say you will come again tomorrow

The daughter of a captain on the rolling seas
LAm LAm7 RE SOL RE
She would stare across the water from the tree

Last time he was home he held her on his knees
LAm LAm7 RE
And said the next time they would sail away just where they please
SOL SOL7 DO SOL SOL7 DO
Jamaica say you will help me find a way to fill these lifeless sails

Sail untill our waters have run dry
