The Harder They Come - Jimmy Cliff
Intro: D A G A D A G
A
Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky
G
Waiting for me when I die
A
But between the day you're born and when you die
G
They never seem to hear even your cry
CHORUS:
| F#
|So as sure as the sun will shine
| Bm
|I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
| A G
|And then the harder they come the harder they'll fall, one
| D
|and all
| A G D
|Ooh the harder they come the harder they'll fall, one and all
A
Well the officers are trying to keep me down
G
Trying to drive me underground
A
And they think that they have got the battle won
G
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
A
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
G
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
A
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
G
Than living as a puppet or a slave
[CHORUS]
A G
Yeah, the harder they come, the harder they'll fall one and
D
all
A G D A G D
What I say now, what I say now
What I say now, what I say one time
A G D
The harder they come the harder they'll fall one and all
A G E
Ooh the harder they come the harder they'll fall one and all
