[Verse 1]
Am                                  E
Way down in Jamaica in the tropical heat
                                                        Am
I met a gal, we took a trip on the train with the rhumba beat
                                                      E
Her eyes were bright and shiny, her lips were red and sweet
                                                                      Am
Her hair was black as the coal they used on the train with the rhumba beat
 
 
[Chorus]
      Am
Carry me
         E               Am
Carry my wonderin' heart home
 
 
[Intrumental Break]
|Am            |E        |Am        |
 
 
[Verse 2]
  Am                                            E
I feel her hot lips kiss me above this tropical heat
                                                                    Am
You can tell my baby I'm a-comin' home on the train with the rhumba beat
                                              E
Soft arms are awaiting me, my life will be complete
                                                                    Am
You can tell my baby I'm a-comin' home on the train with the rhumba beat
 
 
[Chorus]
      Am
Carry me
         E               Am
Carry my wonderin' heart home
 
 
[Intrumental Break]
|Am            |E        |Am        |
 
 
[Verse 3]
     Am                                               E
I've traveled this world all over but none could ever beat
                                                                   Am
The pretty little gal I met and loved on the train with the rhumba beat
                                                  E
Her soft arms are awaiting me, my life will be complete
                                                                    Am
You can tell my baby I'm a-comin' home on the train with the rhumba beat
 
 
[Chorus]
      Am
Carry me
         E               Am
Carry my wonderin' heart home
         E               Am
Carry my wonderin' heart home
         E               Am
Carry my wonderin' heart home
