[Verse 1]

Am                                
Way down in Jamaica in the 

  E
tropical heat
I met a gal, we took a trip on the 

                     Am
train with the rhumba beat
Her eyes were bright and shiny, her 

                  E
lips were red and sweet
Her hair was black as the coal they 
used on the train with the rhumba 

Am
beat


[Chorus]

      Am
Carry me

         E               Am
Carry my wonderin' heart home


[Intrumental Break]

|Am            |E        |Am

[Verse 2]

  Am                             
I feel her hot lips kiss me above 

               E
this tropical heat
You can tell my baby I'm a-comin' 
home on the train with the rhumba 

Am
beat
Soft arms are awaiting me, my life 

           E
will be complete
You can tell my baby I'm a-comin' 
home on the train with the rhumba 

Am
beat


[Chorus]

      Am
Carry me

         E               Am
Carry my wonderin' heart home


[Intrumental Break]

|Am            |E        |Am

[Verse 3]

     Am                          
I've traveled this world all over 

                     E
but none could ever beat
The pretty little gal I met and 
loved on the train with the rhumba 

Am
beat
Her soft arms are awaiting me, my 

                E
life will be complete
You can tell my baby I'm a-comin' 
home on the train with the rhumba 

Am
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
