[Gb]
[Eb] [Abm] [Bbm]
[Ab] [Gb] [B] [Gb] When [Bbm] the world gets [Eb] too much [Gb] to carry
And [Eb] when life [Gb] [Bb] becomes [Ebm] too bizarre
[Ab] [Gb] And all my friends seem [Ebm] ordinary
As compared [F] to [Db] the roster [Gb] file
[Bbm] No, I can't wait to [Eb] see [Bb] the city
[Ab] Have a drink [Db] inside my [Gb] favorite bar
So if you leave me, [E] that's [Ebm] a pity
[Ab] Maybe I'm [Db] better off by [Gb] far
[E] Oh, [Eb] John, [Abm] hold me
[Eb] Come let your arms [Abm] in, hold me [E] [Gb] forever and ever
[E] Someone [Eb] told me [Gb] love
[Eb] Here in [Abm] Jamaica leaving [E] you, how [Dbm] could I [Ab] ever
[Bbm] As I ran for [Eb] the ocean [Gb] ferry
Well, [Ab] I knew [F] I'd said my [Abm] last goodbye
[Ebm] And now [Gb] my life [Bb] seems [Bm] [E] so [Ebm] contrary
As the [Db] stars fill [Gbm] the evening [Dbm] sky
[Gm] [Ab] Oh, [Db]
[Ab] [E] [Gb]
[Eb] [Abm] [Eb]
[Ab] [E] [Dbm] [Eb] Jamaica, [Abm] hold me
[Gm] Come let your arms [Db] in, hold me [E] forever [Eb] and ever
[Abm] [E] Someone [Eb] told [Gb] me love
[Eb] Here in Jamaica [Db] leaving [E] you, how [Dbm] could I [Ab] ever
[B] [Dbm] Oh, [Eb] Jamaica,
[Gb] hold me
[Eb] Come let your arms [Db] in, hold me [E] forever [Gb]
and [Ab] ever
[E] Someone [Eb] told [Gb] me love
[Eb] Here in Jamaica [Abm] leaving you, how [Gb] could [Dbm] I [Ab] [Bb] [Eb]
[Abm] [Gb] [Eb] [Abm] [E]
[Eb] [Ab] [E] [G] ever
