Subject: CRD: Jamaica Say You Will The Byrds Chords/Lyrics
The Byrds Jamaica Say You Willwritten by Jackson Browne
[tab]
Jamaica was the lovely one I played her well[/tab]
[tab]
As we lay in the tall grass where the shadows fell[/tab]
[tab]
Hiding from the children so they would not tell[/tab]
[tab]
We would stay there untill her sister rang the evening bell[/tab]
[tab]
Jamaica say you will help me find a way to fill these empty hours[/tab]
[tab]
Say you will come again tomorrow[/tab]
[tab]
The daughter of a captain on the rolling seas[/tab]
[tab]
She would stare across the water from the tree[/tab]
[tab]
Last time he was home he held her on his knees[/tab]
[tab]
And said the next time they would sail away just where they please[/tab]
[tab]
Jamaica say you will help me find a way to fill these lifeless sails[/tab]
[tab]
Stay untill my ships can find the sea[/tab]

[tab]
Jamaica was a sweet young one I loved her true[/tab]
[tab]
She was a comfort and a mercy thru and thru[/tab]
[tab]
Hiding from this world together next thing I knew[/tab]
[tab]
They had brought her things down to the bay what could I do[/tab]
[tab]
Jamaica say you will help me find a way to fill these sails and then[/tab]
we ll
[tab]
Sail untill our waters have run dry[/tab]
