[Verse 1]
[F]Lon[C]g tim[F]e ago,
when I was a [C]young [F]boy
I saw [C]that [F]movie "Mutiny on the [C]Bounty"
[Bb]Starring my idol, Marl[C]on Brand[F]o
[Gm]And I felt a yearning for that great[C] adventure
[F]So [C]many n[F]ights I woke up
[C]out[F] of a dream
[C]A d[F]ream of blue seas[C], whit[Bb]e sands
[C]Paradis[F]e birds, butterflies
[Gm]and beautiful warm[C]-hearted girls

[Chorus 1]
[F]Sun of [C]Ja [F]maica, [C]the [F]dreams of [C]Ma [F]laika
[C]Our [Bb]love is [C]my [F]sweet memo[Gm]ry[C]
[F]Sun of [C]Ja [F]maica, [C]Blue [F]Lady [C]Ma [F]laika
[C]Some [Bb]day I'll [C]re t[F]urn, wait and [Gm]see[C]

[Bridge 1]
[C]Walk in the sand and I'm [F]happy [Bb]with [F]you
[C]We shall be loving and [F]true
Oh I [Dm]sure love Ma[F]laika with [Dm]all of my [F]heart
I will [Bb]always be [F]faithful and [Eb]true, yeah [C]true

[Verse 2]
[G]But now as [D]I grew old[G]er
This [D]buring [G]desire became [D]so [G]strong
That I bought me [D]a ticket t[C]o fly over there
[D]And[G] then I found you[Am]
And we found an [D]eternal
love right from the beginning
[G]Sta[D]rs fal[G]ling down
from the [D]sleepy la[G]goon
[D]Palms [G]swaying under the [D]moon
[C]We were swimming out int[D]o the cal[G]m,
crystal [Am]sea
In that fateful [D]night I thought to myself
[G]I'll do eve[D]rything I c[G]an,
[D]save [G]every dime
[D]And one[G] day I'l[D]l retur[C]n,
come [D]back home [G]to you
And then I'll [Am]stay [D]forever, forever

[Chorus 2]
[G]Sun of [D]Ja [G]maica, [D]the [G]dreams of [D]Ma [G]laika
[D]Our [C]love is [D]my [G]sweet memo[Am]ry[D]
