...SURVIVAL... by Bob Marley
--------------..............
*from 'Survival' (1979)*
Intro:
Am
(Ow-ow-ow-ow, ow, ow-ow-ow-ow), yeah, yeah, yeah!
Verse 1:
Am F Am
How can you be sitting there, telling me that you care?
Am F
When everytime I look around, the people suffer in suffering,
Am
In every way, in everywhere.
F Am G (n.c)
Na-na-na-na-na, (na-na-na-na).
Chorus 1:
(n.C) Am
We're the sur-vivors, yes, the black survival. I tell you what;
Verse 2:
Am
Some people got everything, some people got nothing.
Some people got hopes and dreams, some people got ways and means.
F Am G (n.c)
Na-na-na-na-na, (na-na-na-na).
Chorus 2:
(n.C) Am
We're the sur-vivors, yes, the black survival,
Yes we're the survivors, like Daniel out of the lions' den,
Survivors, survivors.
Bridge 1:
C F Em
So my brethren, my sisthren, which way will we choose?
Am F G
We better hurry, oh hurry, woah now, 'cos we got no time to lose.
Verse 3:
Am
Some people got facts and claims, some peole got pride and shame.
Some people got the plots and schemes, some people got no aim it seems.
F Am G (n.c)
Na-na-na-na-na, (na-na-na-na).
Chorus 3:
(n.C) Am
We're the sur-vivors, yes, the black survival,
We're the survivors, yeah, the black survival.
We're the survivors, (like Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego).
Thrown in the fire, but never get burn.
Bridge 2:
C F Em
So my brethren, my sisthren, the preaching and talking is done,
Am F C
We gotta live up, woah now, woah now, 'cos the father's time has come.
Verse 4:
Am
Some people put the best outside, some people keep the best inside.
Some people can't stand up strong, some people won't wait for long.
F Am G (n.c)
Na-na-na-na-na, (na-na-na-na).
Chorus 4:
(n.C) Am
We're the sur-vivors in this age of technological inhumanity,
(Survivors), scientific atrocity, (survivors), atomic mis-philosophy,
(Survivors), Nuclear mis-energy, (black survival).
It's a world that forces lifelong insecurity,
(Black survival), all together now:
F Am G (n.c)
Na-na-na-na-na, (na-na-na-na).
Coda:
(n.C) Am
We're the sur-vivors, yeah, the black survival.
We're the sur-vivors, a good man is never honoured, (survivors),
In his own country, (black survival).
Nothing change, nothing strange, (survivors).
Nothing change, nothing strange, (black survival).
(Fade)
