The Harder They Come Jimmy Cliff
[D] [A] [G] [A] [D] [A] [G]
Well they t[A]ell me of a pie up in the sky
[G]Waiting for me when I die
But betw[A]een the day you're born and when you die
They ne[G]ver seem to hear even your cry
CHORUS:
So as s[F#]ure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna g[Bm]et my share now of what's mine
And then the ha[A]rder they come the ha[G]rder they'll fall, one and [D]all
Ooh the h[A]arder they come the ha[G]rder they'll fall, one and [D]all
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jimmy_cliff/the_harder_they_come_crd.html )
Well the officers are trying to keep me down
Trying to drive me underground
And they think that they have got the battle won
I say forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done
CHORUS
ooh yeah oh yeah woh yeah ooooh
[D] [A] [G] [A] [D] [A] [G] [D] [A] [G] [A] [D] [A] [G]
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Than living as a puppet or a slave
CHORUS
Yeah, the ha[A]rder they come, the h[G]arder they'll fall one and [D]all
What I say now, what I say now [A] [G] aww[D]w[A] [G] [D]
What I say now, what I say one time
The ha[A]rder they come the ha[G]rder they'll fall one and a[D]ll
Ooh the ha[A]rder they come the ha[G]rder they'll fall one and al[E]l
