Verse:
One [Dmin]day one woman asked him what d[Fmaj]o you to survive?
He said "[Cmaj]oh my dear, listen here." and t[Gmin]his is what I cry
On my f[Dmin]eet, I wear two shoes for dancing, d[Fmaj]ancing to be free.
My f[Cmaj]eet they're paying tribute to the Bo[Gmin]bby Marley Legacy
and my [Dmin]knees they've got some cuts and bruises
from a-[Fmaj]skating all my days
because a-w[Cmaj]hen I'm skating with my friends
my tr[Gmin]oubles drift away. I say
my l[Dmin]egs they're wearing baggy pants
I like ta [Fmaj]move around
'Cause getting d[Cmaj]own and jumping up
These are some g[Gmin]ood things that i've found
Chorus:
Waaaiiiyyaaa[Bb] [Maj]
[Dmin] boomshak the emp[Gmin]ire be ris[Cmaj]ing
Waaiiiyyaaa
[Dmin] boomshak we maki[Gmin]ng some lo[Cmaj]vin'
Waaiiiyyaaa
[Dmin] boomshak tha gre[Gmin]edy man ru[Cmaj]nning
Waaiiiyyaaa
[Dmin] boomshak got two[Gmin] shoes for[Cmaj] dancing.
... and my [Dmin]waist has got a slinky belt
with a [Fmaj]clip that's quick to open
because a'[Cmaj]loving is the sweetest thing,
and f[Gmin]rom my waist is happens
and my [Dmin]stomach's got some tasty food
that's [Fmaj]makin' me feel good
because [Cmaj]sharing some meals is
some thing I [Gmin]wish the world could do
and my [Dmin]chest it wears a singlet
oh my [Fmaj]chest is beating proud
oh my c[Cmaj]hest suggests I am a man
that no [Gmin]institutions will knock round
and a[Dmin]round my neck is superstiton
[Fmaj]hanging from a chain
because i've [Cmaj]got my gods, but in the end
I'll m[Gmin]ake my own way.
Chorus:
Waaaiiiyyaaa[Bb] [Maj]
[Dmin] boomshak the emp[Gmin]ire be ris[Cmaj]ing
Waaiiiyyaaa
[Dmin] boomshak we maki[Gmin]ng some lo[Cmaj]vin'
Waaiiiyyaaa
[Dmin] boomshak tha gre[Gmin]edy man ru[Cmaj]nning
Waaiiiyyaaa
[Dmin] boomshak got two[Gmin] shoes for[Cmaj] dancing.

and my [Dmin]mouth it's got a great big smile
that [Fmaj]shows some great big teeth,
to [Cmaj]friends it brings happiness
and to e[Gmin]nemies it brings defeat.
and my [Dmin]eyes have got some vision
they can [Fmaj]see through many lies
oh my [Cmaj]eyes they look for better things,
the [Gmin]better things to see in life
and my [Dmin]ears are wearing headphones
they're to p[Fmaj]lay my favourite songs;
and n[Cmaj]ot music i'm told to like
but the [Gmin]songs that make me dance along
'cause [Dmin]on my feet are shoes for
shoes for [Fmaj]dancing, dancing to be free
oh my [Cmaj]feet they're paying tribute to...
[Gmin](The Bobby Marley Legacy!)
