Verse 1:
Bbmaj7 Eb Dm7 Cm7
What your hands do; it's your own eyes that've seen,
Cm7 F7 Bb
So won't you judge your actions, to make sure the re-sults are clean?
Bbmaj7 Eb Dm7 Cm7
It's your own conscience, that is gonna re-mind you,
Cm7 F7 Bb
That it's your heart and nobody else's, that is gonna judge.

Bb Eb
Be not selfish, in your doings;
Bb
Pass it on, (pass it on, children).
F Eb Gm7 Cm7
Help your brothers, in their needs; pass it on.
Bb Eb
Live for yourself and you will live in vain,
F Bb
Live for others, and you'll live a-gain.

In the kingdom of Jah, man shall reign.
Bb Eb
Pass it on, pass it on.
Bb Eb
Pass it on, pass it on.
Verse 2:
Bbmaj7 Eb Dm7 Cm7
What's in the darkness; must be re-vealed to light.
We're not here to judge what's good from bad,
Cm7 F7 Bb
But to do the things that are right.
Bbmaj7 Eb Dm7 Cm7
On a hot, sunny day, under the shadows for rescue.
Cm7 F7 Bb
But as the day grows old; I know the sun is gonna find you.
Chorus 2:
Bb Eb
Be not selfish, in your doings;
