(ver. 1)
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
  D                         G 
    I beg your pardon mama, what did you say
  A                             D 
    My mind was drifting off on Martinique Bay 
  D                           G 
    It's not that I'm not interested, you see 
  A                          D 
    Augusta, Georgia is just no place to be 


D                         G 
    I think Jamaican in the moonlight 
  A                         D 
    Sandy beaches, drinking rum every night 
  D                       G 
    We got no money mama, but we can go 
  A                                   D 
    We'll split the difference, go to Coconut Grove 


  D                       G 
    Keep on talking mama, I can't hear 
  A                             D 
    Your voice, it tickles down inside of my ear 
  D                     G 
    I feel a tropical vacation this year 
  A                             D 
    Might be the answer to this Hillbilly beard 


D                         G 
    I think Jamaican in the moonlight 
  A                         D 
    Sandy beaches, drinking rum every night 
  D                       G 
    We got no money mama, but we can go 
  A                                   D 
    We'll split the difference, go to Coconut Grove 
















 D              G 
    Voila!  An American Dream
  A                               D 
    Well, we can travel girl, without any means 
  D                       G 
    When it's as easy as closing your eyes 
  A                        D 
    And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign

  A                           D 
    It goes so easy with that rain falling down
  D                      G 
    I think a tropical vacation this year
  A                             D

    And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign 

  D                            G
