Hey guys, welcome again to my channel World of Folk Songs.
Today I'm going to be singing a song from Jamaica and it's called the Jamaican Fable song.
So here it goes, hope you guys like it.
[Ab]
[Bbm]
[Ab]
The alleyway [Db] where the nights are gay [Bbm] and the sun shines daily [Ab] on the mountain top.
I took a trip [Db] on a sailing [Bbm] ship when I reached Jamaica [Ab] and the little stuff that I had.
I sat and [Bbm] sang on my way, coming [Ab] back many a day.
My heart is down, [Bbm] my head is turning around, [Ab] I have to leave a [Bbm] little girl [Ab] in Kansas town.
[Bbm]
[Eb] [Ab]
Sounds of laughter [Db]
everywhere [Bbm] and angels [Ab] sang to the wind and flowers.
I must declare [Db] my heart is burned [Bbm] so I fade [Ab]
from nameless Mexico.
But I sat and [Bbm] sang on my way, coming back [Ab] many a day.
My heart is down, my [Bbm] head is turning around, [F] I have to leave a little [Ab] girl in Kansas town.
[Bbm]
[G]
[Ab] Down at the market [Db] you can [Bbm] hear ladies cry [Bb] out, why [Ab] long they stay there.
Auckie rice [Db] and fish are nice [Bbm] and the whole fine [Ab] and the point of fear.
But I'm stuck sailing [Bbm] on my way.
Coming back [Ab]
many a day.
My heart is down, [Bb] my head is turning [Bbm] around, [Ab] I have to leave [Eb] a little [Ab] girl in Kansas town.
But I'm stuck [Bb] sailing on my way.
[Bbm]
Coming [Ab] back many a day.
My heart is down, my [Bb] head is turning [Bbm]
around, I have to leave a little girl [Ab] in Kansas town.
But I'm stuck [Bbm]
sailing on my way.
We'll be [Ab] back for many a day.
My heart is down, [Bbm] my head is turning around, I [Ab] have to leave [Eb] a little girl [Ab] in Kansas town.
[N]
