JIMMY BUFFETT: JAMAICA MISTACA
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Intro:- Bm, A, Bm X2
~~~~~   
 	 Bm, G, A  X2

 	 Bm, A, G, A X2

Verse:-  	 
 	 Bm  	     A  	  	    G  	  	     A

 	 Some folks say that I\'ve got the perfect life


 	 Bm 	      A 	                 G                 A
 	 Three swell kids, lots of toys and a lovely wife 	 
        (continue  same)



Interlude 1 - the steel drum bit (do a \"Misirlou\" type picking here for the 1st time round)
 	 This bit is repeated twice by the steel drums:

 	 e |-------------------------------|
 	 b |---3/7/3---3/5/2---2--0--2--3--|
 
 	 g |-------------------------------|   

Verse 2 follows - which is the same then....


 	       G 	     A 	  	 D      A      Bm
 	 Come back, Come back,  Back to Jamaica

     G             A       D      A    Bm   	 
 	 Don\'t you know we made a big mistaka

      G             A 	  	 D    A  	    Bm
 	 We\'d be so sad, if you told us goodbye

 	  	   G 	  	  	 F#m
 	 And we promise not to shoot you out of the sky



The interlude here is Bm, G, A X2 then Bm, A, G, A X2 
which then goes back to the verse structure. (Same as above) The slide bit follows then the chorus....

The fast bit is next which is:-

Bm, A, G, F#m, F, D, F, F#m - try the tab here (the bass line) to get the rhythm of it:-

e |-------------------------------------------------------|
b |-------------------------------------------------------|
g |-------------------------------------------------------|
d |-------------------------------------------------------|
a |-------------10-10-10-9-9-9--8-8-8-8-5-8-9-------------|
e |7-7-7-5-5-5--------------------------------------------|

For the above - play the chords higher up on the fretboard.
Bm on the 8th fret, the A on the 5th then the G on the 10th and F#m on the 9th etc etc..

The solos in B 

End bit: Promise not to shoot you..... goes:

G, F#m, F, F#m, F, D, Bm
