|C--G|----|F---|----:|| X2


GThey tell me of a pie up in the sky.......
FWaiting for me when I die 
GBut between the day you're born and when you die....
FThey never seem to hear you even your cry.
OoooEmSo as sure as the sun will shine.......
OoooAmI'm gonna get my share now, what's mine 

GThe harder they come, Fthe harder they fall one and Call.
GThe harder they come, Fthe harder they fall one and Call. 

GWell the oppressors are trying to keep me down......
FTrying to drive me underground
GAnd they think that they have got the battle won.....
FI say forgive them Lord they know not what they've done. 
OoooEmCause as sure as the sun will shine.....
OoooAmI'm gonna get my share now, what's mine

GAnd I'll keep on fighting for the things I want....
FThough I know that when you're dead you can't 
GBut I'd rather be a free man in my grave.....
FThan living as a puppet or a slave. 
OoooEmAs sure as the sun will shine....
OoooAmI'm gonna get my share now, what's mine

GThe harder they come, the Fharder they fall one and Call.
