Playing in Jah's waterfall                         [Verse]

I don't care who call me, no                  Dm C F Am

I'll never be one of dem who

Come and try to mix it up, mix it up

So them stand and say - We must protect our world today

While all of ya see the whole of Africa

And watch it turn into a desert               (Gm F   x4)

                                     [Bridge] (C  Dm x4)

(There was a gifted man - Never knew how to plan, yeah)

(For) the future of all creation

(So he became a soldier man who

 Shot I for no reason   - Dropped bombs in a foreign land

 Here on Earth, they've wasted away their lives

 Pitting I and I against one another)

                                            [Intro & Link]

Well, it seems they will answer            Am Am Gm Gm

To our son and daughter in this time       Am Am Bb   Bb

But for now, they say, oh God

Go away children, go away children, children go away


Playing in Jah's waterfall - One day it cease to fall, yes

We've cut down all the trees

And watched the anima-als die from diseases

I dropped down on my knees and pray - Ohh I Father, take I

Won't you save us as you saved Noah

Ham, Shem and Japhet                [Solo - Bridge] [Link]


Playing in Dunn's riverfall - I don't care who call me, no

For some of dem see the world, yeah - And try to escape it

Turning their back pon the land, yeah-eh   ╔═════════════╗

Watching the mountain turn into sand       ║  Waterfall  ║

But as long as my heart bea-eats on        ║ Groundation ║

I will fight to rebuild mount Zion         ╚═════════════╝

                                                  [Bridge]

(There was a holy land - Far beyond the ocean, yeah)

(Holding) (Only to vanish in a vi-ision, yeah

 Speaks of generation  - Destroying their ho-homeland

 I am crying on behalf of our children - The day

     must come when we will learn to live together) [Link]


(Playing in Jah's waterfall, (yeah/…) - ((That's all I

     (wanted/ever needed))/Oh God, forever) x1~2~1)
