turnin' around and around.

I hear you callin' me home,

 G                   D
Got to get back to Jamaica,

 G                D
I want to roam no more,

2nd VERSE:

 D
Gypsy, she say I got the fever,

 G           D
I don't know whether to believe her,

 D          
But when the wind blow from the sea,

   G           A/G     D
My soul start to fly away,

 D 
She give me charm that will protect me,

 G             D
Necklace with stone from far across the sea,

 D                             
But island magic much too strong,

   G      A/G           D
It won't let me go this time.
