The Harder They Come - Jimmy Cliff

[Verse] A A G G

Well, they tell me of a pie up in the sky

Waiting for me when I die

But between the day you're      [Intro] D<A

    born and when you die               G<A

They never seem to hear, even your cry  D<A

                                           G

[Chorus] F# F# Bm Bm - (A G (D D) x2)

(So), as sure as the sun will shine

I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine

((And then/Ooh) the harder they come, (the/…)

     harder they'll fall - One and all () x2)

Well, the officers are tryin' to keep me down

Tryin' to drive me underground

And they think that they have got    [Chorus]

    the battle won                    (Cause)

I say forgive them Lord,              [Intro]

    they know not what they've done      (x2)

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] (x3) (So) (…/…/Hey)

 (//what I say now (x2)) - … - Ohhh

… - What I say (now/one time) (x2)     (/Ooh)

     [Chorus - Lines #3~6] (…/D-C B) (/the)
