Verse 1:
 F#            C#
I said I came upon this land
  B                  F#
To guide and teach my fellow man
   F#                C#
But one thing I can't overstand
  B                        F#
Is why them don't, love his brother man

Sometimes I sit and look around
   B             F#
And listen to the daily sound
   F#                    C#
But when I check, there's so much lies
   B                         F#
And that's the reason why the children cry

It's been so long, we need a change
      B                  F#
So the shitstem we got to rearrange
   F#                   C#
And if there's obstacles in the road
  B                 F#
We got to throw them overboard

Chorus:
  C#              F#

   F#                    C#
One night, an evil spirit held me down
 B                  F#
I could not make one single sound
     F#                 C#
Until Jah told me, "Son, use the Word"
   B               F#
And now I'm as free as a bird

Oh bumbo klaat! Oh ras klaat!
