1. Long time ago, when I was a young boy,
DGDC
I saw that movie, "Mutiny On The Mountain"
DG
starring my idol, Marlon Brando.
AmD
And I felt a yearning for that great adventure.

2. So many nights I woke up out of a dream.
DCD
A dream of blue seas, white sands,
GAm
Paradise birds, butterflies, and
D
beautiful warm hearted girls

Sun of Jamaica, the dreams of Malaika, your love is my sweet memory.

Sun of Jamaica, blue Lady Malaika, someday I´ll return, wait and see.

3. But now as I grew older, the burning desire became so strong
EDEA
that I bought me a ticket to fly home
BmE
and then I found you and we found in eternal love
right from the beginning.

4. The stars falling down from the sleepy Lagoon,
EAED
The palms swaying under the moon,
EA
We were swimming out into the calm crystal sea,
BmE
in that faithful night I thought to myself.
AEAEAE
I´ll do everything I can, save up every dime,
AEDED
and one day I´ll return, come back home to you,
BmE
and then I´ll stay forever, forever.
