THE HARDER THEY COME- Jimmy Cliff

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                          D
And then the harder they come the harder they'll fall, one and all
         A                     G                          D
Ooh the harder they come the harder they'll fall, one and all
[ Tab from: https://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
            A                    G                          D
Yeah, the harder they come, the harder they'll fall one and all
                               A    G    D   A   G   D
What I say now, what I say now        awww
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
