[Intro]
| E | A  E | A | E | A |


[Chorus]
          A        E      A
There's a new moon over Jamaica
        D                           A
And the New Year just got here, you see
          D               A
There's a new moon over Jamaica
        A              E       A
And I'm living with an old memory


[Verse]
   E                        A
So won't you come back to Jamaica?
E                    A
You know it isn't so far
     B                       E
Look up in the sky where you left me that night
        B                         E
I'll be standing right under that star


[Chorus]
          A        E      A
There's a new moon over Jamaica
        D                           A
And the New Year just got here, you see
          D               A
There's a new moon over Jamaica
        A              E       A
And I'm living with an old memory


[Verse]
E                      A
I said good evening to Venus
E                     A
She said good evening too
B                        E
Out there somewhere, you know I could swear
B                     E
She sent a message of true love from you


[Chorus]
          A        E      A
There's a new moon over Jamaica
        D                           A
And the New Year just got here, you see
          D               A
There's a new moon over Jamaica
        A              E       A
And I'm living with an old memory


[Verse]
  E                           A
A new moon makes someone feel happy
  E                          A
A new moon makes someone lovesick
    B                    E
I'm thinking of you, but what can I do?
B                           E                E7
New moons and New Years and old love's don't mix


[chorus] (+ coda)
          A        E      A
There's a new moon over Jamaica
        D                           A
And the New Year just got here, you see
          D               A
There's a new moon over Jamaica
        A              E       F#m  D
And I'm living with an old memory
         A           E            A    A
Just the New Year, a new moon and me
