Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Far[F] aw[G]ay [C]where
the [F]nights are gay
And the [G]sun shines daily on the [C]mountaintop
I took a trip on a [F]sailing ship
And when I [G]reached Jamaica I made a stop
[C]But I'm sad to say I'm [G]on my way
Won't be back for [C]many a day
Me heart is down,
me head is [F]turning around
I had to [C]leave a little [G]girl
in Kingston [C]town[F][G]
[C]The sounds of laughter everywhe[F]re
And the [G]dancing girl swings to and [C]fro
I must declare my [F]heart is there
Though I've [G]been from Maine to Mexico
[C]Oh, but I'm sad to say
I'm [G]on my way
Won't be back for [C]many a day
Me heart is down,
me head is [F]turning around
I had to [C]leave a [G]little girl in
Kingston [C]town[F][G][C]
Down the market [F]you can
hear ladies [G]cry out,
while on their heads they [C]bear.
Ackie rice, all [F]fish is nice,
no the [G]rum is fine,
any time of [C]year, but I'm
Sad to say I'm [G]on me way
Won't be back for [C]many a day
Me heart is down,
me head is [F]turning around
I had to [C]leave a [G]little girl in [C]Kingstown town
For I'm sad to say I'm [G]on me way
Won't be back for [C]many a day
My heart is down,
my head is [F]turning around
I had to [C]leave a [G]little girl in Kingston [C]town
