VERSE:

  G       Bm          Em
  All the needy still need
  C       Am          Em
  All the losers still lose
  G       Bm          Em
  All the peachers still preach
  C       Am          Em
  They ain't bringin' no change

  Keep playing Em for a bit.


CHORUS:

  For the chorus, play the same thing as the verse. 

  G       Bm        Em
  I'm not afraid to die
  C                Am          Em
  'Cause all these colors will change
  G       Bm        Em
  I'm not afraid to die
  C                Am          Em    
  'Cause all these colors will change     (Strum these last 3 only one time)

  You can play it the same way as show above and it will sound fine,
  It's the same chords but played higher.

  Bits and bits of cane

LYRICS:

  Ohhhh ahhh ohhhh
  Ahhhh ahhh ahhhh

  All the needy still need
  And all the losers still lose
  All the preachers still preach
  But they ain't bringin no change

  I'm not afraid to die
  'Cause all these colors will change

  All the low is still low
  And all the high still get high
  How I wish we could dance
  But all these rhythms don't seem to match up
  Seem to match up

  I'm not afraid to die
  'Cause all these colors will change

  Ohhhh ahhh ohhhh
  Ahhhh ahhh ahhhh

  Bits and bits of cane, burning burning burning
  Bit by bit away
  They grow as people grow
  And glow as people glow

  I'm not afraid to die
  'Cause all these colors will change
