| C          G    | Am              F |
    Said I remember when we used to sit
| C        G                | Am         F |
    In the government yard in Trenchtown
| C          G         | Am  F |
    Oba, oba-serving the hypocrites as they would
| C               G         | Am      F |
  Mingle with the good people we meet
| C                      G      | Am                 F |
    Good friends we have had, oh, good friends we've lost 
| C  G |    | Am  F |
    Along the way
| C               G        | Am                F |
    In this great future you can't forget your past
| C    G              | Am  F |
    So dry your tears I say


[repeat CHORUS]

| C             C/B    | Am               F |
    Dear Little darlin',    don't shed no tears

  No woman, no  cry


Say, say...

| C          G    | Am              F |
    Said I remember when we used to sit
| C        G                | Am         F |
    In the government yard in Trenchtown

| C          G           | Am            F |
    And then Georgie would make the fire lights,
        | C         G                 | Am    F |
As it was,  logwood burnin' through the nights
| C               G           | Am      F |
    Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
| C               G        | Am       F |
    Of which I'll share with you, oooh.
| C    G        | Am        F |
    My feet is my only carriage
| C         G            | Am                     F |
    So I've got to push on through but, while I'm gone...
