 Almost heaven, West Jamaica,

 True Ridge Mountains, shining down the river.

 All my friends there,  holding on those ridge,
D#                          C#             G#
 Younger than the mountain, blowin' like a breeze.

 I heard her voice; in the mornin' hour she calls me.
       C#         G#            D#
Said; "son you re-mind me of my home far away".
G#                D#             C#
 Drivin' down the road, I feel a sickness, I sure did,

Oh yes-terday, yesterday.

 All my memories all gather 'round her,

 Dark and dusky painted on the sky,
D#                         C#                 G#
 Misty taste of moonshine, tears gone from my eye.

Won't you let me go home, country roads?
