JAMAICA FAREWELL C F Down the way where the nights are gay, G7 C And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop.C F I took a trip on a sailing ship, G7 C But when I reached Jamaica I made a stop.
Chorus: C Dm But I'm sad to say I'm on my way, G7 C Won't be back for many a day. C DmMy heart is down, my head is spinning around; G7 CI had to leave a little girl in Kingston town.
Chorus C FSounds of laughter everywhere, G7 CAnd the dancing girls swirl to and fro.C FI must declare my heart is there, G7 CThough I've been from Maine to Mexico.
Chorus C FDown at the market you can hear, G7 CLadies cry out while on their heads they bear, C FAkkay rice, salt fish are nice, G7 CAnd the rum is good any time of year. Chorus x2

AIN’T SHE SWEET w-Jack Yellen m-Milton Ager 4/4 1…2…1234
Ain’t she sweet? See her coming down the street.
Now I ask you very confidentially, Ain’t she sweet?
Ain’t she nice? Look her over once or twice.
Now I ask you very confidentially, ain’t she nice?
Just cast an eye in her direction
Oh, me! Oh, my! Ain’t that perfection?
I re- peat, don’t you think that’s kind of neat?
And I ask you very confidentially Ain’t she sweet?

FIVE FOOT TWO w. Sam Lewis, Joe Young m. Ray Henderson
4/4 1…2…1234
Five foot two, eyes of blue, but, oh, what those five feet could do!
Has anybody seen my gal?
Turned up nose, turned down hose, flapper, yes sir, one of those!
Has anybody seen my gal?
Now if you run into a five foot two covered with fur,
STOP Diamond rings, and all those things, betcha life it isn't her!
But could she love, could she woo, could she, could she, could she coo!
1 REPEAT (fast, after count) Has anybody seen my gal?
2 Has anybody seen my, anybody seen my, anybody seen my gal?

LEAVIN’ ON A JET PLANE w.m. John Denver 4/4 1…2…123
All my bags are packed, I’m ready to go, I’m standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breaking, it’s early morn’, taxi’s waiting, he’s blowing his horn.
Already I’m so lonesome I could cry. CHORUS:
So kiss me and smile for me, tell me that you’ll wait for me
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
‘Cause I’m leavin’ on a jet plane, don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
15
Leavin’ On a Jet Plane p. 2
There’s so many times I’ve let you down, so many times I’ve played around
I tell you now… they don’t mean a thing
Every place I go I’ll think of you, every song I sing I’ll sing for you
When I come back I’ll wear your wedding ring…………… CHORUS
Now the time has come to leave you, one more time, let me kiss you
Then close your eyes, I’ll be on my way
Dream about the days to come, when I won’t have to leave alone
About the times I won’t have to say……………….CHORUS 16

And the [Am] only [C] time that [D] he's satis[F]fied
Is [Am] when he's [E7] on a [Am] drunk [E7]
Oh [Am] mother [C] tell your [D] children [F]

TAKE ME HOME, COUNTRY ROADS 4/4 1…2…1234
Almost heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River All my memories, gather ‘round her, miner’s lady, stranger to blue water
Life is old there, older than the trees, younger than the mountains, growin’ like a breeze Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye
Country roads, take me home to the place I be-long:
REPEAT (2nd verse) West Vir-ginia, mountain momma, take me home, country roads
I hear her voice, in the mornin’ hours she calls me, radio re-minds me of my home far away
Drivin’ down the road I get a feelin’ that I should have been home yesterday, yester-day
Country roads, take me home to the place I be-long:
West Vir-ginia, mountain momma, take me home, country roads… take me home, country roads

WHEN IRISH EYES ARE SMILING 3/4 123 12
When Irish eyes are smiling, sure it’s like a morn in Spring
In the lilt of Irish laughter you can hear the angels sing
When Irish hearts are happy, all the world seems bright and gay
And when Irish eyes are smiling, sure they steal your heart a-way.
MY WILD IRISH ROSE 3/4 123 12
My wild Irish rose, the sweetest flower that grows,
You may search everywhere, but none can compare
With my wild Irish rose.
My wild Irish rose, the dearest flower that grows,
And, someday for my sake, she may let me take
The bloom from my wild Irish rose. (Ritard) 21
THAT’S AN IRISH LULLABY 3/4 123 123
Over in Kil-larney, many years a-go
Me mother sang a song to me in tones so sweet and low
Just a simple little ditty in her good ‘ould’ Irish way
And I’d give the world if she could sing that song to me to-day…..
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo--ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, hush, now, don’t you cry.
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li
(End on C) Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, that’s an Irish lull - a -by.
Oft in dreams I wander to that cot a-gain,
I feel her arms a-huggin' me as when she held me then.
And I hear her voice a-hummin' to me as in days of yore,
(“Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral”) When she used to rock me fast asleep out-side the cabin door. 22
I’M LOOKING OVER A FOUR-LEAF CLOVER Mort Dixon,Harry Woods 4/4 1…2…1234
I’m looking over a four-leaf clover that I overlooked before
One leaf is sunshine, the second is rain, third is the roses that grow in the lane
You know there’s no need explaining the one remaining is someone that I adore.
I’m looking over a four-leaf clover that I overlooked before.
IT'S A SIN TO TELL A LIE w.m. Billy Mayhew 4/4 1234 1
Be sure it's true when you say, "I love you," IT'S A SIN TO TELL A LIE!
Many poor hearts have been broken, just because those words are spok - en.
I love you, yes I do, I love you. If you break my heart I’ll die.
So be sure it's true when you say, "I love you,"
IT'S A SIN…….TO TELL……A LIE! 8 8 4 4 2 2 4 23
THE WILD ROVER 3/4 123 12 (without intro)
Intro: (4 measures)
I've been a Wild Rover for many's the year, and I spent all me money on whiskey and beer
But now I'm returning with gold in great store, and I never will play the Wild Rover no more Chorus:
And it's no, nay, never, no, nay, never, no more
Will I play the Wild Rover, no never, no more
I went into an alehouse I used to fre-quent, and I told the land-lady me money was spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me "Nay, such a custom as yours I can have any day" Chorus
I took out of me pocket ten sovereigns bright, and the landlady's eyes opened wide with de-light
She said "I have whiskey and wine of the best, and the words that ye told me were only in jest" Chorus
I'll go home to me parents, confess what I've done, and I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
And when they caress me as oft times be-fore, then I never will play the Wild Rover no more Chorus X2

WHISKEY IN THE JAR (Traditional)
As [G] I was going over the [Em] Cork and Kerry mountainsI [C] met with Captain Farrell and his [G] money he was counting,I [G] first produced my pistol and [Em] then produced my rapier,Saying [C] “Stand and deliver for you [G] are my bold deceiver.”
CHORUS:With your [D] ring dum-a do dun-a da![G] Whack fol the daddy oh! [C] Whack fol the daddy oh!There’s [G] whiskey [D] in the [G] jar [G] (last time end [G] )
He [G] counted out his money and it [Em] was a pretty pennyI [C] put it in my pocket and I [G] took it home to Jenny,She [G] sighed and she swore that [Em] never would she leave me,But the [C] devil take the women for they [G] never can be easy.
Repeat CHORUS
I [G] went in to my chamber all [Em] for to take a slumber,I [C] dreamt of gold and jewels and for [G] sure it was no wonder,For [G] Jenny drew my charges and then [Em] filled them up with water,And she [C] sent for Captain Farrell to be [G] ready for the slaughter.
Repeat CHORUS
’Twas [G] early in the morning be-[Em]fore I rose to travel,Up [C] crept a band of footmen and sure [G] with them Captain Farrell,I [G] then produced my pistol for she [Em] stole away my rapier,But I [C] couldn’t shoot the water so a [G] prisoner I was taken.
Repeat CHORUS
If [G] anyone can help me it’s my [Em] brother in the army,If [C] I could learn his station be it [G] Cork or in Killarney,And [G] if he’d come and join me we’d go [Em] roving in Kilkenney,I [C] know he’d treat me fairer than me [G] darling sporting Jenny.
Repeat CHORUS
There’s [G] some takes delight in the [Em] carriages and rollin’,And [C] some takes delight in the [G] Hurley or the Bollin’.But [G] I takes delight in the [Em] juice of the barley,And [C] courtin’ pretty maids in the [G] mornin’, oh so early.
Repeat CHORUS

Lovely Hula Hands - Robert Alexander Anderson http://www.kanikapila.us/lyrics.html
INTRO [C] Vamp
[C] Lovely hula hands, graceful as the birds in [Dm] mo [G7] tion. (In [Dm] Mo [G7] tion)
Gliding like the Gul o’er the ocean. Lovely hula [C] hands.
[C] Kou [G7] li ma-na ni [C] e.
[C] Lovely hula hands, telling of the rain in the [Dm] val [G7] ley. ([Dm] Val [G7] ley)
And the swirling winds o’er the Pali. Lovely hula [C] hands.
[C] Kou [G7] li ma-na ni [C] e.
[C7] I can feel the soft caresses of your hula [F] hands,
Your [C7] lovely hula [F] hands.
[A7] Every little move expresses so I’ll under [Dm] stand
[G7] All the tender meaning [C] of your hula hands.
[C] Finger tips that say “A [Dm] lo [G7] ha!” (A [Dm] lo [G7] ha!)
Say to me again I love you. Lovely hula [C] hands.
[C] Kou [G7] li ma-na ni [C] e.
(Repeat entire song)
Finish with [C6] (All open strings)

[G] Lovely you and [C] Blue Ha[G]waii

The [A7] night is young

This magic [G] night of [Cm6] nights with [G] you

BY THE LIGHT OF THE SILVERY MOON 4/4 1…2…123
By the light of the silvery moon, I want to spoon, to my honey I’ll croon love’s tune
Honey-moon, keep a shinin’ in June
Your silvery beams will bring love’s dreams,
We’ll be cuddlin’ soon, by the silvery moon.
By the light (not the dark, but the light) of the silvery moon (not the sun, but the moon)
I want to spoon (not knife, but spoon), to my honey I’ll croon love’s tune.
Honey-moon, (not the sun, but the moon), keep a’shinin’ in June (not May, but June)
Your silvery beams will bring love’s dreams, we’ll be cuddlin’ soon, (not later, but soon) .
By the silvery moon (not the gold – en moon!) 34
HELLO! MA BABY 4/4 1…2…1234
Hello, my baby, hello, my honey, hello my ragtime gal
Send me a kiss by wire; baby my heart’s on fire 2 2 2
If you refuse me, honey, you’ll lose me, then you’ll be left alone
Oh baby, telephone, and tell me I’m your own. 4 4 4 4
TOOT, TOOT, TOOTSIE!
Toot, Toot, Tootsie, good-bye, Toot, Toot, Tootsie don’t cry
The choo choo train that takes me, away from you no words can tell how sad it makes me
Kiss me, Tootsie, and then, do it over a-gain.
Watch for the mail, I’ll never fail, if you don’t get a letter then you’ll know I’m in jail. Oh, oh, oh
Tut, tut, Tootsie, don’t cry, Toot, Toot, Tootsie, good-bye. 12345 7

YES, SIR, THAT’S MY BABY 4/4 1…2…1234
Yes, sir, that’s my baby, no, sir, I don’t mean maybe
Yes, sir, that’s my baby now.
Yes, ma’am we’ve decided, no, ma’am we won’t hide it
Yes ma’am you’re invited now.
By the way, by the way, when we reach the preacher I’ll say
Yes, sir, that’s my baby, no, sir, I don’t mean maybe
Yes, sir, that’s my baby now.

ON THE SUNNY SIDE OF THE STREET 4/4 1…2…123
Grab your coat and get your hat, leave your worries on the door - step
Just direct your feet to the sunny side of the street
Can’t you hear a pitter pat and that happy tune is your step
Life can be so sweet on the sunny side of the street
I used to walk in the shade with the blues on pa-rade
Now I’m not a-fraid, this rover crossed over
If I never have a cent I’ll be rich as Rocke-fel -- ler
Gold dust at my feet on the sunny side of the street
TEQUILA! On the sunny, on that sunny side of the street.

MY BLUE HEAVEN 4/4 1234 1
When Whippoorwills call and evening is nigh
I hurry to my blue heaven.
A turn to the right, a little white light
Will lead you to my blue heaven.
You'll see a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room,
A little nest that's nestled where the roses bloom.
Just Mollie and me and baby makes three
We're happy in my blue, my blue, my blue heaven

SIDE BY SIDE 4/4 1…2…123
Oh, we ain’t got a barrel of mo- ney, maybe we’re ragged and fun- ny,
But we’ll travel a-long, singin’ a song, side by side. 1 3 2 4
Oh, we don’t know what’s comin’ tomor- row, maybe it’s trouble and sor - row,
But we’ll travel the road, sharin’ our load, side by side.
Through all kinds of weather, what if the sky should fall?
Just as long as we’re together, it doesn’t matter at all.
When they’ve all had their quarrels and part- ed, we’ll be the same as we start- ed,
Just a’travellin’ a-long, singin’ a song, side…….by……side.

OH! YOU BEAUTIFUL DOLL 4/4 1…2…1234
Oh! You beautiful doll, you great big beautiful doll
Let me put my arms about you
I could never live without you
Oh! You beautiful doll, you great big beautiful doll
If you ever leave me, how my heart would ache
I want to hug you but I fear you’d break
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! You beautiful doll.
