What was learned from my father, yes I'll teach it to my son
Dm CWhat was learned from my mother, yes I'll teach it to my daughter
Dm CFor you must remember my friend, the line of history stretches far beyond we
And still we stand time, and time again as a tribute to them
(we'll call this the pre-chorus)
C Dm Am GWell now tell me if there's one thing that you're wanting, you gotta let me know
Tell me something, tell me anything, why did they all have to go
Dm Am GFor if there's one thing, that you're wanting, you gotta let me know
Dm Am GSay something, say anything, before I have to go, for Zion is awaiting
(chorus)Dm Am G
Jah people in this life, you got to be head strong, head strong
Dm Am GTeach your children right, or they won't live too long, too long
Jah people in this life, you got to be head strong, head strong
Dm Am GLive up in the right, or you won't live too long, too long
Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am
(Right here there there is a long instrumental part with the singer singing just a few
things in the distance, play those chords until it ends)
What was learned from my father, yes I'll teach it to my daughter
Dm CWhat was learned from my mother, yes I'll teach it to my son
Dm CFor it was them who said, don't get mixed up in your knowledge of today...
(And then head on back up to the pre-chorus and chorus for one more round, and that's it.)
