Clem Tholet - Rhodesians never die
G+G A augmentedA G+G A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
D MajorD B minorBm
Here's the story of Rhodesia,
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
A augmentedA land both fair and great.
D MajorD B minorBm
On 11th of November
G+G A augmentedA
An independent state.
D MajorD B minorBm
This was much against the wishes
G+G A augmentedA
Of certain governments,
G+G D MajorD
Whose leaders tried to break us down,
A augmentedA D MajorD
To make us all repent.
G+G
But we're all Rhodesians
D MajorD
And we'll fight through thick and thin.
G+G
We'll keep our land a free land,
D MajorD A augmentedA
Stop the enemy coming in.
D MajorD B minorBm
We'll keep them north of the Zambezi
G+G A augmentedA
'Til that river's running dry.
G+G D MajorD
This mighty land will prosper
A augmentedA D MajorD
For Rhodesians never die.
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
D MajorD B minorBm
They can send their men to murder
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
And they can shout their words of hate.
D MajorD B minorBm
But the cost of keeping this land free
G+G A augmentedA
Can never be too great.
D MajorD B minorBm
For our men and boys are fighting
G+G A augmentedA
For the things that they hold dear.
G+G D MajorD
That this land and all its people
A augmentedA D MajorD
Will never disappear.
G+G
Cos we're all Rhodesians
D MajorD
And we'll fight through thick and thin.
G+G
We'll keep our land a free land,
D MajorD A augmentedA
Stop the enemy coming in.
D MajorD B minorBm
We'll keep them north of the Zambezi
G+G A augmentedA
'Til that river's running dry.
G+G D MajorD
This mighty land will prosper
A augmentedA D MajorD
For Rhodesians never die.
