Clem Tholet - Rhodesians never die


G A G A  A D A D  A

           D           Bm
Here's the story of Rhodesia,
  G         A        D
A land both fair and great.
   D         Bm
On 11th of November
   G           A
An independent state.
              D           Bm
This was much against the wishes
   G            A
Of certain governments,
      G                D
Whose leaders tried to break us down,
   A             D
To make us all repent.

          G
But we're all Rhodesians
          D
And we'll fight through thick and thin.
               G
We'll keep our land a free land,
         D            A
Stop the enemy coming in.
                D            Bm
We'll keep them north of the Zambezi
          G               A
'Til that river's running dry.
     G                D
This mighty land will prosper
       A             D
For Rhodesians never die.

A D A

         D                 Bm
They can send their men to murder
             G           A        D
And they can shout their words of hate.
        D               Bm
But the cost of keeping this land free
    G            A
Can never be too great.
        D                Bm
For our men and boys are fighting
        G                     A
For the things that they hold dear.
          G                D
That this land and all its people
     A         D
Will never disappear.

          G
Cos we're all Rhodesians
          D
And we'll fight through thick and thin.
               G
We'll keep our land a free land,
         D            A
Stop the enemy coming in.
                D            Bm
We'll keep them north of the Zambezi
          G               A
'Til that river's running dry.
     G                D
This mighty land will prosper
       A             D
For Rhodesians never die.
