Harry Belafonte - Jamaica farewell

1. Down^C the way where the lights a gay ^F and the sun shi^Cnes daily on the^G mountain top. ^C I took a trip an a sailing sh^Fip and when we reached Jama^Cica, I made a sto^Gp. ^C

But I`m sad to<sup>C</sup> say, I`m on my way, ^G wo^Gn`t be back for many a day,^C my heart^C is down, my head is turning around, ^F I had to leave^C a little girl in K^Gingston^C Town.

2. Down^C a the market you can hear ^F ladies cry o^Cut what on ^Gthe heads their be^Car. Haki, rice, salt and fish are ni^Fce and the rum tas^Ctes fine any tim^Ge of year. +^C CHORUS

3. Soun^Cds of laughter everywhere, ^F and the dancing ^Cgirls sway ^Gto and fro. ^C I must declare my heart is there^F, though I have been from M^Caine to Mexico. ^G+ CHORUS ^C
