The Devil Went Down To Jamaica [Dm]Travis Meyer

Intro
Dm C Dm  C  Bb  A  G  A  Dm  Dm    A C Dm

Verse 1
Dm The devil went to Jamaica, he was lookin' to sell some weed
Dm He was doin' fine, they were standin' in line, It was excellent weed indeed
Dm When he came across this young man who was likewise peddlin' pot
Dm And the devil slid down the beach to the kid and said, "Boy lemme tell ya what" A C Dm

Dm "I guess you've kinda figured I'm a reefer head of course
Dm And after all this time I guess that I'm a connisuer of sorts
Dm Now your stuff smells okay, but this could tranquilize a horse
Dm I'll bet a million in cash against your stash, 'Cause I think mines better than yours" A C Dm

Dm The boy said, "My name's Johnny, And you ain't smoked nothin yet
Dm One hit of this grass'll kick your ass, You got yourself a bet" A C Dm

Bridge
Dm Johnny roll a ball of hash, And C make sure it's the bomb
'Cause the Gm devil's got the kind of stuff they Dm smoked in Vietnam!
You'll Dm get a million smackaroos in G cash if you can cope
But A if you can't the devil gets your A dope!

Verse 2
Dm The devil packed a bong with a little Acapulco Gold
Dm And resin flew from his fingertips as he fired up his bowl
Dm He filled that chamber all the way and he took a mighty hit
Dm As they passed it back and forth it gave them both a coughin' fit A C Dm Coughing

Verse 3
Dm When the bowl was finished Johnny said, "Hey man that stuff was great!
Dm But fill your lungs with some of this, And prepare to vegetate!"

Chorus
D Cannibis Sativa, Sweet Mary Jane!
The C devil's in the backyard fryin' his brain!
D Zig-zag filled with the diggity-dank!
C Hold on tight it'll hit ya like a tank! A C Dm

Verse 4
Dm The devil nodded off because he knew that he was stoned
Dm And he asked if he could buy an ounce of the stuff that Johnny owned
Dm Johnny said "Devil just come on back, If you ever wanna catch a buzz
Dm I done told you once you son of a bitch, Mines the best there ever was!", And they...
