Jamaica Farewell Song



Verse:


E A


Down the way where the nights are gay


B A E


And the sun shines daily on the mountain top


E A


I took a trip on a sailing ship


B A E


And when I reach Jamaica I made a stop










Chorus:


A


But I'm sad to say, I'm on my way


B A E


Won't be back for many a day


E A


My heart is down, my head is turning around


B A E


I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town






lyrics:


Down the way where the nights are gay


And the sun shines daily on the mountain top


I took a trip on a sailing ship


And when I reach Jamaica I made a stop






But I'm sad to say, I'm on my way


Won't be back for many a day


My heart is down, my head is turning around


I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town






Sounds of laughter everywhere


And the dancing girls swaying to and fro


I must declare, my heart is there


Tho' I've been from Maine to Mexico






But I'm sad to say, I'm on my way


Won't be back for many a day


My heart is down, my head is turning around


I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town






Down at the market you can hear


Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear


Ackey rice, salt fish are nice


And the rum is fine any time of year






But I'm sad to say, I'm on my way


Won't be back for many a day


My heart is down, my head is turning around


I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town

Cheeseburger in Paradise


By: Jimmy Buffett


1978


>From "Son of a Son of a Sailor"


Bm






A




Bm






G




Bm






A
D








G A D


Tried to amend my carnivorous habits


G A D


Made it nearly seventy days


G A D


Losin' weight without speed, eatin' sunflower seeds


E A


Drinkin' lots of carrot juice and soakin' up rays


G A D G


But at night I'd have these wonderful dreams


G A Bm


Some kind of sensuous treat


G D G D


Not zucchini, fettucini or bulgar wheat


G D A D


But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat






Chorus:


G A D


Cheeseburger in paradise


G A D


Heaven on Earth with an onion slice


G A D


Not too particular, not too precise


G D A D


I'm just a Cheeseburger in paradise






Heard about the old time sailor men


They eat the same thing again and again


Warm beer and bread they said could raise the dead


Well it reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn






But times change, sailors these days


When I'm in port I get what I need


Not just Havanas or bananas or daiquiris


But that American creation on which I feed






Chorus:


Cheeseburger in Paradise


Medium rare with mustard be nice


Heaven on Earth with an onion slice


I'm just a Cheeseburger in Paradise






** (Guitar Tacet throughout)


** I like mine with lettuce and tomato


** Heinz 57 and French fried potatoes


** Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer


** Well good God almighty which way do I steer for my






Chorus:


Cheeseburger in Paradise


Makin' the best of every virtue and vice


Worth every damn bit of sacrifice to get a


He went to Paris lookin' for answers


D A


To questions that bothered him so






He was impressive, young and aggressive


D E7


Savin' the world on his own






D


But the warm summer breezes


A


The French wines and cheeses


D E7


Put his ambition at bay


A


The summers and winters






Scattered like splinters


D E7 A


And four or five years slipped away






Then he went to England, played the piano


And married an actress named Kim


They had a fine life, she was a good wife


And bore him a young son named Jim






And all of the answers and all of the questions


Locked in his attic one day


'Cause he liked the quiet clean country livin'


And twenty more years slipped away






Well the war took his baby, the bombs killed his lady


And left him with only one eye


His body was battered, his whole world was shattered


And all he could do was just cry






While the tears were a-fallin' he was recallin'


Answers he never found


So he hopped on a freighter, skidded the ocean


And left England without a sound






Now he lives in the islands, fishes the pilin's


And drinks his Green Label each day


Writing his memoirs, losin' his hearin'


But he don't care what most people say






Through eighty-six years of perpetual motion


If he likes you he'll smile and he'll say


"Jimmy, some of it's magic, some of it's tragic


But I had a good life all the way"






A


And he went to Paris lookin' for answers


D E7 A


To questions that bothered him so

She's saving up all of her money


Wants to head it south in May

Somewhere down Montserrat way


But the money's good in the season


Helps to lighten up her load


Boys keep her high as the months go by


She's gettin' postcards from the road

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

Sailed off to Antigua


It took her three days on a boat


Lookin' for some peace and quiet


Maybe keep her dreams afloat


But now she feels like a remora


'Cause the school's still close at hand


Just behind the reef are the big white teeth


Of the sharks that can swim on the land






Repeat first chorus

@SONG: Margaritaville


@CHORDS: Mike A. Hall (mhall@moe.coe.uga.edu)


Margaritaville


By: Jimmy Buffett


1977


>From "Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes"






D


Nibblin' on sponge cake






Watchin' the sun bake


A


All of those tourists covered with oil






Strummin' my six-string






On my front porch swing


D D7


Smell those shrimp, they're beginnin' to boil






Chorus:


G A D D7


Wastin' away again in Margaritaville


G A D D7


Searching for my lost shaker of salt


G A D A G


Some people claim that there's a wo-man to blame


A G D


But I know it's nobody's fault






I don't know the reason


I stayed here all season


Nothin' to show but this brand new tattoo


But it's a real beauty


A Mexican cutie


How it got here I haven't a clue






Chorus:


Wastin' away again in Margaritaville


Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt


Some people claim that there's a woman to blame


Now I think


Hell, it could be my fault






Solo (based on verse chords and chorus)






I blew out my flip-flop


Stepped on a pop-top


Cut my heel had to cruise on back home


But there's booze in the blender


And soon it will render


That frozen concoction that helps me hang on






Chorus:


Wastin' away again in Margaritaville


Searching for my lost shaker of salt


Some people claim that there's a woman to blame


But I know


It's my own damned fault






G A D A G


Yes and, some people claim that there's a wo-man to blame


A G D


And I know it's my own damned fault

@SONG: Son Of A Son Of A Sailor


@CHORDS: Mike A. Hall (mhall@moe.coe.uga.edu)


Son of a Son of a Sailor


By: Jimmy Buffett


1978


>From "Son of a Son of a Sailor"






G


As the son of a son of a sailor


F C G


I went out on the sea for adventure


C G


Expanding the view of the captain and crew


D G


Like a man just released from indenture






G


As a dreamer of dreams and a traveling man


F C G


I have chalked up many a mile


C G


Read dozens of books about heroes and crooks


D G


And I learned much from both of their styles






Chorus:


F C


Son of a son, son of a son


G


Son of a son of a sailor


F C


Son of a gun, load the last ton


C


One step ahead of the jailer










Now away in the near future


Southeast of disorder


You can shake the hand of the Mango man


As he greets you at the boarder






And the lady she hails from Trinidad


Island of the spices


Salt for your meat and cinnamon sweet


And the rum is for all your good vices






F C


Haul the sheet in as we ride on the wind


G


That our forefathers harnessed before us


F C


Hear the bells ring as the tide ringing sings


G


It's a son of a gun of a chorus










Where it all ends I can't fathom my friends


If I knew I might toss out my anchor


So I'll cruise along always searching for songs


Not a lawyer a thief or a banker






But the son of a son, son of a son


Son of a son of a sailor


Son of a gun, load the last ton


One step ahead of the jailer


I'm just a son of a son, son of a son


Son of a son of a sailor






F C


The sea's in my veins, my tradition remains


G


I'm just glad I don't live in a trailer

Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes


By: Jimmy Buffett


1977


>From "Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes"






Intro: G D A G D






D G


I took off for a weekend last month


A D


Just to try and recall the whole year


G


All of the faces and all of the places


A D


Wonderin' where they all disappeared


Bm F#m


I didn't ponder the question too long


G A


I was hungry and went out for a bite


G D


Ran into a chum with a bottle of rum


A D


and we wound up drinkin' all night






Chorus:


G D


It's these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes


A D


Nothing remains quite the same


G D


With all of our running and all of our cunning


A G D


if we couldn't laugh we would all go insane






Reading departure signs in some big airport


Reminds me of the places I've been


Visions of good times that brought so much pleasure


Makes me want to go back again


If it suddenly ended tomorrow


I could somehow adjust to the fall


Good times and riches and son of a bitches


I've seen more than I can recall






Chorus:


These changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes


Nothing remains quite the same


Through all of the islands and all of the highlands


If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane






(Repeat Intro chords)






I think about Paris when I'm high on red wine


I wish I could jump on a plane


So many nights I just dream of the ocean


God I wish I was sailin' again


Oh, yesterday's over my shoulder


So I can't look back for too long


There's just too much to see waiting in front of me


And I know that I just can't go wrong






Chorus:


With these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes


Nothing remains quite the same


With all of my running and all of my cunning


If I couldn't laugh I just would go insane


If we couldn't laugh we just would go insane


A F C G D A D


If we weren't all crazy we would go insane

@SONG: Pirate Looks at Forty


@CHORDS: Mike A. Hall (mhall@moe.coe.uga.edu)


Pirate Looks at 40By: Jimmy Buffett






G


Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call


C D Am7 G


Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall


Am D Am7 G


You've seen it all, you've seen it all....






2)


Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam


And in your belly you hold the treasure that few have ever seen


Most of them dreams, most of them dreams






3)


Yes, I am a pirate, two hundred years too late


The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder


I'm an over forty victim of fate


Arriving too late, arriving too late






4)


I've done a bit of smugglin', I've run my share of grass


I made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast


Never meant to last, never meant to last






5)


I have been drunk now for over two weeks,


I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks,


But I've got stop wishin', got to go fishin'


I'm down to rock bottom again,


Just a few friends, just a few friends...






6)


I go for younger women, lived with several awhile


And though I ran away, they'll come back one day


And I still can manage a smile.


It just takes a while, just takes a while






7)


Mother, mother ocean, after all these years I've found


My occupational hazard being my occupation's just not around


I feel like I've drowned, gonna head uptown....

A Matter Of Trust - Billy Joel

Intro: D A Bm

D A Bm A D

Some love is just a lie of the heart

D A Bm A

The cold remains of what began with a passionate start

A

And they may not want it to end

A A7 D

But it will, it's just a question of when

I've lived long enough to have learned

The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned

But that won't happen to us

Because it's always been a matter of trust



I know you're an emotional girl

It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world

I can't offer you proof

But you're gonna face a moment of truth



It's hard when you're always afraid

You just recover when another belief is betrayed

So break my heart if you must

It's a matter of trust





Em

You can't go the distance

F#m

With too much resistance

G F#m

I know you have doubts

Bm G A D

But for God's sake don't shut me out

This time you've got nothing to lose

You can take it, you can leave it

Whatever you choose

I won't hold back anything

And I'll walk away a fool or a king

Some love is just a lie of the mind

It's make believe until it's only a matter of time

And some might have learned to adjust

But then it never was a matter of trust

I'm sure you're aware love

We've both had our share of

Believing too long

When the whole situation was wrong



Some love is just a lie of the soul

A constant battle for the ultimate state of control

After you've heard lie upon lie

There can hardly be a question of why



Some love is just a lie of the heart

The cold remains of what began with a passionate start

But that can't happen to us

Because it's always been a matter of trust

Just as long as you stand, stand by me.

Chorus:

So, darling, darling, stand by me,

Fm

Oh, stand by me.

D E A

Oh, stand, stand by me,

Stand by me.



If the sea that we look upon

Should tumble and fall

Or the mountain should crumble in the sea,

I won't cry, I won't cry,

No, I won't shed a tear

Just as long as you stand, stand by me.



Chorus

Beatallica

SONG: Summer in the City by Lovin' Spoonful


capo III -- therefore, when you play an Am chord, a Cm chord is sounded.

[verse 1:]

Am Am/G D/F# F E

Hot town, summer in the city; back of my neck getting dirty and gritty

Am Am/G D/F# F E

Been down, isn't it a pity; doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

E E7

All around, people looking half dead

Am A

Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

[chorus:]

D G

But at night it's a different world

D G

Go out and find a girl

D G

Come-on come-on and dance all night

D G

Despite the heat it'll be alright

Bm E

And babe, don't you know it's a pity

Bm E

That the days can't be like the nights

Bm E

In the summer, in the city

Bm E

In the summer, in the city

[verse 2:]

Cool town, evening in the city; Dressing so fine and looking so pretty

Cool cat, looking for a kitty; Gonna look in every corner of the city

Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop

Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop

[chorus]

[Instrumental break]

[verse 1]

INTRO: D C G

D C G

It was 1989, my thoughts were short my hair was long

D C G

Caught somewhere between a boy and man

D C G

She was 17 and she was far from in between

D C G

It was summertime in Northern Michigan

INTRO D C G

Splashin' thru the sandbar, talkin' by the campfire

D C G

It's the simple things in life like when and where

D C G

We didn't have no internet, but man I never will forget

D C G

The way the moonlight shined upon her hair

CHORUS:

D C G

And we were tryin' different things and we were smokin' funny things

D C G

Makin' love out by the lake to our favorite songs

D C G

Sippin' whisky out the bottle not thinkin' 'bout tomorrow

D C G D C G

Singin' sweet home alabama all summer long

D C G

Singin' sweet home alabama all summer long

D C G

Catchin' walleye from the dock watchin' waves roll off the rocks

D C G

She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul

D C G

We'd blister in the sun we couldn't wait for night to come

D C G

To hit that sandy place of rock 'n roll





CHORUS





SOLO



D C G

Now nothin' seems as strange as when the leaves began to change

D C G

Oh how we thought those days would never end

D C G

Sometimes I hear that song and I'll start to sing along

D C G

And think man I'd like to see that girl again

CHORUS (2x

INTRO

This might not be the right chords, but it sounds hell of a lot better than the other one.

Intro:

D – C
G – G




G

In the summertime when the weather is hot,

you can stretch right up and touch the sky,

C G

when the weather is fine, you got women, you got women on your mind.

D

Have a drink, have a drive,

C G

go out and see what you can find.





G

If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal,



if her daddy's poor, just do as you feel.

C G

Speed along the lane, do a ton or a ton and twenty-five.

D

When the sun goes down,

C G

you can make it make it good in a lay-by.





G

We're not grey people, we're not dirty, we're not mean,



we love everybody but we do as we please.

C G

When the weather is fine, we go fishing or go swimming in the sea.

D

We're always happy,

C G

life's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy.

G

Sing along with us, da da di di di

Da da da da yeah we’re happy

C G

Da da da da, di di di di di da da da

D

Da da da da ,

C G

da da da da da da da da da da da da







G

When the winter's here, yeah, it's party-time,



bring a bottle, wear your bright clothes, it'll soon be summertime.

C G

And we'll sing again, we'll go driving or maybe we'll settle down.

D

If she's rich if she's nice,

C G

bring your friend and we will all go into town.



Repeat Verse 1, 2, 3 and then the diddles until fade out.

Song notes:

-----------

During whole song there is one background guitar, which plays riffs.

I haven't tried to make it out, I've just made out tab-guitar.

But during INTRO and LAST VERSE is this guitar silent, so in this parts

riff-guitar appears.

If you'll interested in riffs, look below, there are riffs but they're bad.

They're just made to fit the song.

Piano Chords :

C G F C G F C

The rangers had a homecoming in Harlem late last night

And the Magic Rat drove his sleek machine over the Jersey state line

Barefoot girl sitting on the hood of a Dodge

Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain

D E F G

The Rat pulls into town rolls up his pants

D E F C

Together they take a stab at romance and disappear down Flamingo Lane

Well the Maximum Lawman run down Flamingo chasing the Rat and the barefootgirl

And the kids round here look just like shadows always quiet, holding hands

From the churches to the jails tonight all is silence in the world

D E F G D E F G C

As we take our stand down in Jun-gle-land



C G F C G F C

The midnight gang's assembled and picked a rendezvous for the night

They'll meet `neath that giant Exxon sign that brings this fair city light

Man there's an opera out on the Turnpike

There's a ballet being fought out in the alley

Until the local cops, Cherry Tops, rips this holy night



D E F G

The street's alive as secret debts are paid

D E F G

Contacts made, they vanish unseen

D E F G

Kids flash guitars just like switch-blades

D E F G

hustling for the record machine



Bb D C C

The hungry and the hunted explode into rock'n'roll bands

Bb (Bb)

That face off against each other out in the street down in



D F C G

In the parking lot the visionaries dress in the latest rage

D F F G G

Inside the backstreet girls are dancing to the records that the D.J. plays

D F

Lonely-hearted lovers struggle in dark corners

C G C F G G

Desperate as the night moves on, just a look and a whisper, and they're gone



Sax solo



Beneath the city two hearts beat

Soul engines running through a night so tender in a bedroom locked

In whispers of soft refusal and then surrender in the tunnels uptown

The Rat's own dream guns him down as shots echo down them hallways in thenight

No one watches when the ambulance pulls away

Or as the girl shuts out the bedroom light



D C

Outside the street's on fire in a real death waltz

D C D

Between flesh and what's fantasy and the poets down here

F G D

Don't write nothing at all, they just stand back and let it all be

Bb

And in the quick of the night they reach for their moment

D Bb

And try to make an honest stand but they wind up wounded, not even dead

C…

Tonight in Jungleland

END

Sorry there's no solo, but that takes to long to tab.

Thunder Road - Bruce Springsteen

G C G-D-G

Screen door slams, Mary's dress waves

Bm C

Like a vision dancing across the porch as the radio plays

D G C

Roy Orbison singing for the lonely, hey that's me and I want you only

G D

Don't turn me home again, I just can't face myself alone again

Don't run back inside, honey, you know just what I'm here for

And you're scared and you're thinking that maybe we ain't that

young any more

show a little faith, there's magic in the night

You ain't a beauty but eh, you're alright

Oh and that's alright with me

G D G C

Ohh come take my hand We're ridin out tonight to case the Promised Land

G Bm C D

Oh Thunder Road, Oh Thunder road, Oh Thunder Road

G C

Hey I know it's late, we can make it if we run

G Bm C D G

D D+ D- D7

Well tonight we'll be free--all the promises will be broken

(if anyone knows better chords to that last line, let me know!!!)

There were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys you sent away

They drive this dusty beach road in the skeleton frames of

burned-out Chevrolets

They scream your name at night in the street

Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet

And in the lonely cool before dawn you hear their engines roaring on

Until you get to the porch, they're gone on the wind so Mary climb in

It's a town full of losers and we're pulling out of here to win





OK, some wierd chords here.

Dexy's Midnight Runners


Poor old Johnny Ray

Sounded sad upon the radio, he moved a million hearts in mono.

Our mothers cried and sang along and who'd blame them.

Now you're grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever.

Go Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye

and we can sing just like our fathers.



Come on Eileen,

I swear (well he means) At this moment you mean everything,

With you in that dress my thoughts I confess verge on dirty Ah come on Eileen.



These people round here wear beaten down eyes

Sunk in smoke dried faces they're so resigned to what their fate is,

But not us, no not us we are far too young and clever.

Remember Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye

Eileen I'll hum this tune forever.



Come on Eileen, I swear, well he means

Ah come on let's take off everything,

That pretty red dress Eileen (Tell him yes)

Ah come on let's, ah come on Eileen, please.



Dexys Midnight Runners are best known in America as one of new wave's ultimate one-hit wonders, thanks to their 1982 number one smash "Come on Eileen," a distinctive fusion of '80s pop, Celtic folk, and blue-eyed soul. In the U.K., however, they earned a fair amount of critical acclaim and made a greater impression on the public consciousness with their frequent changes in sound, wardrobe, and personnel. Dexys were formed in 1978 by singer/guitarist/songwriter Kevin Rowland and singer/guitarist Kevin "Al" ... Read More

El alfabeto

• Children's Song Lyrics and Sound Clip

Jim Nailon

• Listen to this song.

• This song is available on Jim Nailon's "Canciones de mi clase"



• Comments from Jim Nailon:

There is disagreement in the Spanish speaking world as to what actually constitutes their "extra letters." I have included all four possibilities in this song.

The fact that I place them at the end of the alfabeto instead of their usual place is a weakness and a strength. I think it helps Spanish students by grouping the new letters together, but they are not in the traditional Spanish order. Nevertheless, the song provides a fun (and familiar) way to learn to pronounce the Spanish alfabeto.

El alfabeto

Jim Nailon

• Listen to this song.

• This song is available on Jim Nailon's "Canciones de mi clase"



• Comments from Jim Nailon:

There is disagreement in the Spanish speaking world as to what actually constitutes their "extra letters." I have included all four possibilities in this song.

The fact that I place them at the end of the alfabeto instead of their usual place is a weakness and a strength. I think it helps Spanish students by grouping the new letters together, but they are not in the traditional Spanish order. Nevertheless, the song provides a fun (and familiar) way to learn to pronounce the Spanish alfabeto.

I Don’t Like Candy Corn

By Moose A Moose and Zee from Nick Jr.

C G C F C

I don’t like candy corn, No, I don’t like candy corn.

I like lots of other things , But , I don’t like candy corn,



Give it to my brother

Give it to my sister

I hope I get something else to eat

When I dress up to trick-or treat

I would even eat my own feet

I bet they taste much better!



I don’t like candy corn, No, I don’t like candy corn.

I like really love Halloween , But , I don’t like candy corn,

Falling For Fall

Outside the leaves are falling. The temperature is falling too. Yes Autumn is upon ius. But you see, I’m falling too.



SUNG:

Oh I feel like I’m falling for fall. Im not prevaricating. Nor am I exaggerating. Fall has got me in its grasp. It must be said.



Autumns such a pleasant season

You must see all the trees in.

Their blazing colors: orange, gold and red.



Should I write fall a love letter,

Telling how I feel better,

Every time the season comes around each year.



Or maybe I’ll just go on

‘bout how nature puts a show on

As a prelude to all kinds of holiday cheer!!!



I feel like I’m falling for fall

These are feelings of elation

Mixed with some anticipation

When I think of all the fun there is in store!!!



And my heart just goes to thumpin’

Thinkin ‘bout piles of leaves I’ll jump in

Its no wonder that it’s autumn I adore!!!
