And when I Greached Jamaica CI made a stop C/G

CBut I'm sad to C/Gsay DmI'm on my way
GWon't be back Cfor many a day C/G
CMy heart is doC/Gwn, Dmmy head is turning around
GI had to leave a little girl in CKingston town C/G

And the Grum is fine any Ctime of year C/G
[Chorus]
CBut I'm sad to C/Gsay DmI'm on my way
