 Jamaica was the lovely one I played her well
       Gbm                Gbm7                     E B 
 As we lay in the tall grass where the shadows fell
 E                                A             A/Ab A/Gb 
 Hiding from the children so they would not tell
           Gbm                  Gbm7       B               
 We would stay there until her sister rang the evening bell

 Jamaica say you will help me find a way to fill these empty hours

       E                           A         A/Ab A/Gb 
 The daughter of a captain on the rolling seas
            Gbm              Gbm7             E B 
 She would stare across the water from the tree
 E                                  A        A/Ab A/Gb 
 Last time he was home he held her on his knees
              Gbm                   Gbm7     B                     
 And said the next time they would sail away just where they please

 Jamaica say you will help me find a way to fill these lifeless sails

 Stay un - til  my ships can find the sea

 She was a comfort and a mercy through and through
 E                                  A             A/Ab A/Gb 
 Hiding from this world together next thing I knew
          Gbm                              Gbm/B           B 
 They had brought her things down to the bay what could I do
