Jamaica Farewell (Maggie) - Harry Belafonte Intro: (Island Strum) [G] [G] [G] [G] Verse 1: [G] Down the way where the [C] nights are gay And the [D7] sun shines gaily on the [G] mountain top [G] I took a trip on a [C] sailing ship And when I [D7] reached Jamaica I [G] made a stop |Chorus: |[G] But I’m sad to say, [C] I’m on my way |[D7] Won‟t be back for [G] many a day |Me [G] heart is down, my head is [C7] turning around |I had to [D7] leave a little girl in [G] Kingston town Verse 2: [G] Down at the market [C] you can hear Ladies [D7] cry out while on their [G] heads they bear [G] Akee, rice, salt [C] fish are nice And the [D7] rum is fine any [G] time of year Chorus: Verse 3: [G] Sounds of laughter [C] everywhere And the [D7] dancing girls sway [G] to and fro [G] I must declare my [C] heart is there Though I’ve [D7] been from Maine to [G] Mexico |Chorus: |[G] But I’m sad to say, [C] I’m on my way |[D7] Won‟t be back for [G] many a day |Me [G] heart is down, my head is [C7] turning around |I had to [D7] leave a little girl in [G] Kingston town [Repeat Chorus]
