The Harder They Come Chords

(ver. 1)
Jimmy Cliff
[Verse 1]

        G#                        
Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky
F#          
Waiting for me when I die
    G#                     
But between the day you're born and when you die
            F#
They never seem to hear even your cry
       F    
So as sure as the sun will shine
          Bm
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine


[Chorus]

              G#                    F#                          C#
And then the harder they come, the harder they'll fall, one and all
         G#                    F#                           C#
Ooh, the harder they come, the harder they'll fall, one and all


[Verse 2]

           G#              
Well, the oppressors are trying to keep me down
 F#         
Trying to drive me underground 
     G#         
And they think that they have got the battle won
       F#          
I say forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done
         F
Cause as sure as the sun will shine
           Bm
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine


[Chorus]

         G#                 F#                           C#     
Ooh, the harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all 
      

[Verse 3]

    G#     
But I'll keep on fighting for the things I want
                    F#
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
        G#
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
      F#
Then living as a puppet or a slave
      F
So as sure as the sun will shine
           Bm
I'm gonna get my share right now of what's mine


[Chorus]

              G#                   F#                            C#               
And then the harder they come, the harder they'll fall, one and all
          G#                F#                           C#
Ooh, the harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
           G#                    F#                          C#
Yeah, the harder  they come, the harder they'll fall, one and all
           G#                    F#                           C#
Yeah, the harder they come, the harder they'll fall, one and all
