Africa Crying

I am battling with this one as well.  Could the musos on the site turn this into something other than a ballad which is what I have landed up doing again using the same few chords once more?  Many thanx.

AFRICA  CRYING
       
SEE  AFRICA  CRYING
DESPOTIC  RULERS  OF  THE  SOUTH
SEE  BABIES  DYING
THE  RULERS  DON’T  KNOW  PAIN
SEE  AFRICA  DYING
ALL  FOR  POLITICAL  GAIN
PEOPLE  FLEEING  BY  THE  MILLIONS
NEVER  TO  RETURN  AGAIN
POSSESSIONS  NEVER  SALVAGED
ALL FOR  GREED  AND  GAIN
SEE  BABIES  DYING
AFRICA  BURNS  WHILE  CRYING
BIG  BLACK  CARS  AND  FACES
DRIVING  OVER  DEAD  AND  DYING  RACES
SIMPLE  MEN  AND  WOMEN
FEEBLE  BABIES  CRYING  TOO
ALL  OF  MY  POSESSIONS-NOW  BELONG  TO  YOU
AFRICA  DYING  AFRICA  CRYING
MY  PROUD  NATION HAS  JOINED  THE  DEAD  AND  DYING.
